No dear, the true story is, that Latvians asked the help of the boyars to chase out their german elite during the 19th century, who in return stayed there, thatshow they became part of the Russian empire. They switched sides, perfectly OK, but it wasnt Stalin who brought Russians there, and they are there since a few hundred years. And its never a good solution to fck off with an ethnic or religious minority, didnt you learn from the North Ireland things, especially if the ethnic minority's bigbrother is a goddamn nuclear superpower? Latvians are indeed endangering the entire European safety with their moves, on very dubious moral grounds, so they provoke out a war, then what should we do? Die so that they can eradicate their russians? Not too convincing, I dont think anyone can sell such a war to his country's general populace. I would highly recommend for the Latvians, if they are afraid of Russia, then be as clean as the snow morally, because then there wont be excellent excuses for us not to protect them.

I dont know if the Soviets wanted to erase the Latvian culture, if they did they obviously failed, on the other hand Latvians clearly want to erase Russian culture, so by which regards they are better than the Soviets? Why do they think they will be successful, if the soviets werent, and why do they think that Russians wont fell the same hatred towards them, that they feel against the Russians? They are playing with fire, everyone who is playing these minority games is playing with fire, the EU was built exclusively not to play these games, because it started god know how many wars in the continent. Yeah I know Russian gov are horrible, what they do to the Ukrainians is even more horrible, that still doenst give Latvians any right for this, and its unfair not just for their minorities, but also towards the EU and their allies, it sheds bad light on us, jeopardize our security for a petty feud which could be resolved with a little bit of generosity.

I wouldnt make such a fuss about it. I speak english everyday with my colleagues, and dont ask them to learn my native language, thats actually an office policy, that we speak english even with our fellow countrymen inside. So what? Wont my country exist from now on? It did exist for 1100 years, but a shtty little IT company with its international crew will bring it down. Should I care if the Germans or the Brits or the French sending their kids into German Brit and French school while they stay here? Why should I care, its not my business, I dont have problems if anyone sends their kids there? Who has a real country and a secure right to it wont go into these kind of games. This only proves that Putin is right, even the Latvians arent sure if they are really existing, because if they would be, they wouldnt make problems about speaking Russian if they know Russian, because they will be Latvians anyway.

Lol no you couldnt kick out anyone, because you are a nothing, you do what the US and Russia lets you to do, otherwise you will be a 1 million nation with a shtton of enemies around you, and you can cry a river in the UN if you got invaded, noone will listen. You absolutely misunderstand your position and think that because the Czechs could do it with the support of the allies, against an absolutely defeated nation you can do it against a nuclear power, no dear, you dont have the power to do it. If theres no separatism in Latvia, you have no fear from Russia, they wont invade if they cant stir up some local trouble, however if they can, then your best protection is if you didnt provoke them prior. If you played the bigguy, and got invaded then that will be an excellent opportunity for everyone to betray their alliance with LAtvia and pointing fingers at you. @karliskokorevics6902

They know their languages for 1000 years, and will know their languages 1000 years from now. In nazifuhrer Putin's adress to the nation I have seen every single ethnic group presented, he had every single religious head behind him from the catholic bishop to the buddhist lama to the orthodox patriarch, because nazifuhrer Putin at least sometimes watches out for the look, while our democratic favourite is on to ban the orthodox religion and our baltic friends are on deporting Russians. You very much like to ask, whom Crimea belongs to, well I can answer to that Crimea historically belongs to the Tartars, they are the indigenous people there, not the Ukrainian slavs or the Russian slavs. Herodotus wrote about the Scythes there, romans wrote about the Huns there, Byzantines wrote about the Volga Bulgars there, the Cumani there, these are all brother nations to the tartars, not the Ukrainians, both the Russians and the Ukrainians are invaders in Crimea, thats the historical fact, that you are supporting one over another is entirely your business, but wont elevate you into the moral highground. Now tell me about historical minorities, whom you were clever enough to liquidate in your own country marten, so they wont cry in the future. Yeah horrible Russians behve horribly to the poor latvians, and from whom we know that? From the Latvians, who survived, and got back their culture? Fantastic Americans dont have such problems marten you know why? Because they killed their latvians. You think Russians are the worst colonizers, you are wrong, they were the best colonizers, if your kind would have colonized the chuvash, there wouldnt be chuvash minority, or a single chuvash, only a tombstone where you carved the were so sorry scripture. Objectively the ranking is Russians (because they have everyone alive and noone in ghetto>Israelis/Appartheid(because they have everyone alive and some in ghetto)>Canadians/Australians (because they have someone alive, and those are not in ghetto)>Americans (because they have someone alive and those are in ghetto)>Europeans (noone alive). Did you learned from it? Oh yeah, thatswhy you greenlit the Latvian deportation programme, you learned nothing. @marteneriksson8960
