Putin's next target: Latvia ?

[ЛыSSый]

They only need to pass language exam which imo is pretty obvious. When in Rome..

of course. it's a discrimination by the language. all like what i said: fasists.

[Hweinlant]

Like I said, it would still be a good opportunity to kick out those that dont feel loyalty.

Why just them ? It doesn't depend about them and it doesn't depend on those who are loyal. Putin's doctrine is simple: Russian dominance everywhere in post-Soviet space through "protection" of Russian speakers.

This is Moscow's policy. It covers both loyals and dis-loyals. Thus all Russian speakers outside of Russian borders are marionettes of Moscow, this absolutely regardless what they themselves think.

So you think it is too much to ask for these Russian minorities to speak the language of the land ? They need a Russian speaking country for themselves (other than Russian Federation) ? All Latvians would then have to speak in Russian ?

I personally would keep all Russian speakers that contribute to their country and dont act against it.

On the other hand I could personally shoot anyone committing treason, so it is not like I am a moderate person for a Finn.

[Hweinlant]

He looks as a Finnic speaking person whether eastern Estonian or eastern Finn or Finnic speaking from Russia. Everyone is saying this.

Everyone is wrong then. He doesn't look Finnish at all and Finns are like 80% of all Finnic people's out there.

wrong post

It's not about you either. It's about Moscow's policy.

Just commenting on your opinion in kicking out all.

Latvia is a small nation was fearing cultural assimilation. Incorporation of Latvia in Soviet Union against peoples' will; immigrants from all over USSR entering Latvia

and also people from latvia moved in all ussr. it's not discrimination, but a freedom.

with the Latvian language was discriminated against for 40 years.

for 40 years exists schools and printed books on this language.
So, please, let us statistic about a quantity of printed books on latvian language in ussr and independent Latvia

Try to walk in the shoes of the Latvians.

ukraine in the same shoes: in ussr ukrainian language was nuch more maintained, that in independent ukraine.

All they want is Russian speaking peoples to learn Latvian language to pass the exam for citizenship test.

this term mon a freedom, but a totalitarism.
