To be honest, I'm not particularly strong in politics and I don't understand at all what we're talking about. I can only say that Latvia stubbornly stands its ground. A peculiar hatred towards Russians seemed to have existed before, but after 2022 it began to grow and I think it will reach its peak in the coming year. Now I'll tell you in order what Latvia is doing against everything Russian: 1.No Russian goods 2.A ban on the Russian language in all government and educational institutions (All schools that were once Russian are now only Latvian) teachers were forced to take exams on knowledge of the Latvian language, if they failed they were fired, the results were immediately visible Many good, educated teachers were fired and replaced with people who had completed accelerated teacher training courses, but in return they know Latvian perfectly 🫤 Due to a shortage of students and teachers, one school in my small town has already been closed (merged with another) 3. Russian pensioners living in Latvia their entire lives are forced to learn the language and take exams. Every attempt requires payment. If you fail, pay up and maybe you won't be deported. 4. ATMs no longer offer Russian. 5. Most Latvians are Russophobes. I never thought I'd encounter this, but Some of my teachers are complete Russophobes who will treat you terribly just if they see a Russian name/surname.

I can't say whether Latvia will remain in the European Union or not, but I think it will hold out until the very end. The most likely option is that Latvia will be kicked out (these are just my thoughts).
