5. Article

(a) Each Government waives any claim it has or may have against the other Government or any personnel from the force of the other Government for injury (including injury resulting in death) suffered by its personnel or for damage to or loss of property owned by it if such injury, death, damage or loss was caused by acts or omissions of personnel of the other Government in the performance of official duties in connection with this Agreement. The National Armed Forces of Latvia shall, however, submit the equipment and constructions of Kuwait which were under their disposal in the same condition at the time of delivery and to compensate against any damage or loss resulting of the misuse of them. (b) The Government of Kuwait shall deal with and settle, in accordance with its laws, third party claims arising within its own territory for or in connection with any act or omission by the Government of the Republic of Latvia or any personnel from the National Armed Forces of Latvia in the performance of official duties in connection with this Agreement which results in injury, death, loss or damage and the Government of the Republic of Latvia will pay just and reasonable compensation to the Government of Kuwait in respect of any such claims. (c) The Government of the Republic of Latvia shall endeavour to assist third party claims resulting from any act or omission of any personnel from the National Armed Forces of Latvia causing injury, other than in performance of official duties in connection with this Agreement and in obtaining satisfaction of any judgement obtained in respect of any such claims.
