Latvia is ok I guess. There is no risk of a repeat of Ukraine since we are in the EU and NATO. Around 30% of our population are russians though, they were brought here by the soviet government in the 50s, most of them were workers for factories. |
Are these Russians spread out over Latvia or condensed near the border? Do they want to assimilate into Latvian culture or remain a separate culture different to traditional Latvian? Something similar happened in Ireland. Huge number of local people forced off their lands and sent abroad. Meanwhile a large number of Scottish people loyal to the British crown came over and took the lands.
