Crimea crisis sharpens Latvia ethnic tensions

And Pakistan is customer of USA. You need to correct your facts as Russia did not help India at all, Nehru begged Kennedy and by 29 October, airsupplies began to arrive. Russian spokesperson sided with Chinese at that time.

It's complete absurd Argument , Pakistan is Bron Enemy of India Unlike china . Untill 162 war China-India-Russia Were in Friend Circle . . China was Getting Support from Britain against Russia . Russia-China were long time time enemies After 60-70 , China Helped America in Vietnam War .

whatever you have written is Distorted American Defenders Lie .

We had burnt our boat with them. BD Hindus did not get justice because of our shamelessness and we had to wage a war. We made an enemy out of USA and we know how moralless USA and Russia are.

OMG ! . you talking like Americans ... They were Responsible for Millions of Hindu Blood in Bangladesh .

You are justifying massacre of millions by argument that it is peaceful now! Speak for yourself, I very well know conditions there. It was big daddy USSR sucking up wheat from Kazakhastan and capturing livestock which led to deaths. It was done deliberately at insistence of Stalin who wanted to make homogenous country as just after that he sent lot of Russians there.

blah ...blah .... blah ... I don't give F* about Muslim Countries...And American lies

Yes I am a stupid as I raise points regarding ethics and expose double speak of our elites who suffer from soviet orphan nature. I hate USA as much as Russia unlike you all who weep for Iraq but support rape of Latvia and Poland.

Long live Latvia.

you are not Indian ! or you have Foreign Relations . Funny one side you are defending Hindu murderer American . And telling me about American plight of some Muslims country !!!!!

You avoided the question I asked earlier. Stalin is Georgian and you say Stalin deported Latvians. So do the Latvians hate Georgians ?

Well, at that time Latvia was part of Soviet Union, so you can not really oppose people from one part moving to another. But yeah forced migration would be wrong (unless there are some extraordinary circumstances like war.)


Have I justified it in any of my posts ? Please prove it then.

I will preempt and ask you to keep the thread on topic with regards to Latvia and the situation there.
For socialism and other stuff, it is better to open another thread so that this thread isn't derailed. I won't be commenting on that thread btw, coz my economics is not very good.

The question you asked earlier whether Stalin was Georgian.Well its not very clear who his father was.Here`s a wikipedia article on Stalin`s mother.

They had nine homes in the next decade. She returned once when Beso promised to improve, but she soon left to live with Father Charkviani, one of Stalin's rumoured fathers.

Coming to the topic Latvians hate Russians because of past historical grievances and forced deportations.Latvians feel if they come under Russian control yet again they would lose their Homeland.

Is this thread topic have any relation with India ????? ... It's garbage topic started by an American .

 

[sam80]

Grandson, it's not like India buys only from Russia, is it ? There is much more to it, and this isn't the thread for it.

My Advice to you "be careful" , Here on this forum there are many Americans with Pretending Indian nationality.

Is that the reason why I can say Kiisinger was moralless dog just like Stalin or that USA has supported mass murderers like Russians themselves? We have some Russophile communists talking about " hindu blood" after worshipping Stalin for decades.The topic is Latvia not Iraq so please stay on this.

It were likes of your Goddess Indira and that hero of yours Manekshaw who are responsible for not bringing rapists to book. Latvia is so small nation yet it preserves its honor, whereas we Indians allowed Pakis to get away with their genocide of Hindus. Which country can tolerate murder of 3 million people who happen to be founders of the very idea of India? Answer is India which was perhaps pressurized by USSR and USA not to do anything as regards all this.
If in USA so many people had been killed, Chief of Army Staff would have destroyed perpetrator whereas we have a hero who allowed it to happen and waited for saving lives of his few thousand soldiers and his own glory. You elites would always love Russia given such morally bankrupt Indian position.

Latvians would not come under Russian control and would brutally crush Russian minority in country thus nipping in bud any separatist tendencies.

These are rumors. I hope you can do better than spread baseless rumors. I again urge you to keep the hatred aside when posting, it is affecting your thought process.

Anyway this will be my last reply to you on this thread since you and Pratap have a knack for taking threads OT.

And no, Stalin did not replace them with "Russians", he replaced them with Soviets. Russians happen to be the largest Soviet ethnicity. And these Soviets did not just come there and squat, they helped in industrially developing the big cities of these countries. That is why cities like Riga (capital of Latvia) are around 50% ethnic Russian.

Also note that there has been a large Russian minority in Latvia since at least the 16th century, long before the Soviet Union was born.

Is always nice to come to this site and see all the historically interesting, 30 years out of date, Cold War era Soviet propaganda.

Latvian, and all the other Baltic states, had large amounts of vacant properties after the Soviet had forcibly deported Latvians or sent them to Gulags. The Ethnic Russians role in the Soviet Union's "development of Latvian industry" was due to suspicion of ethnic Balts being involved with strategically important matters. i.e. people from the Soviet Union were politically reliable.

All the Baltic states had large ethnic German populations and Finnic language speaking majorities/ minorities too. Now, apart from Estonia, they have neither. What's the relevance of your point about the 16th. century?

Well, at that time Latvia was part of Soviet Union, so you can not really oppose people from one part moving to another. But yeah forced migration would be wrong (unless there are some extraordinary circumstances like war.)

The deportation of ethnic Latvians was forced(Latvia only came a part of the Soviet Union post World War 2). You admit the Soviet Union, and by extension the majority of your comments on this thread, are wrong then?

I will preempt and ask you to keep the thread on topic with regards to Latvia and the situation there.

"Other stuff" and socialism aren't subjects which derail this thread, rather they explain why Latvian's have issues with Russians.

But, along with apparently economics, history, particularly in regards to the Baltic states, is not something you're very good at.

I am not making the thread OT.You asked me a question and I replied to it.Also these are not baseless rumors when Stalin "himself" told about his "priestly" father.(Seems like you did not even read the article).I am keeping my hatred aside and I also wish some people would keep their delusions aside and check out the reality.
Anyway coming to the topic,as per me Latvians have a cold attitude towards Russians due to Stalin and his policies.The rest of the matter has been clearly explained by apple .
