The Russian Foreign Ministry is dissatisfied with the fact that the authorities of the Square are forcibly rationalizing the population with the help of a new law "On Education" and other initiatives. Grigory Karasin, the deputy head of the department, said that Moscow is demanding that international organizations react to the fact that in this country they do not respect Russian-speaking people.. Karasin also said that 141 activists of organizations of Russian compatriots contributed to the base of the Peacemaker. The development of this threatening situation in which the citizens are in disturbs the diplomat. "We are well aware that humanitarian actions in defense of the Russian language or of their faith and culture sometimes require dedication," the newspaper Izvestia quotes Grigory. Recall, recently Rada in the first reading adopted the law "On ensuring the functioning of the Ukrainian language as a state language", according to which not only at the official level, but also in everyday life, people should not speak Russian. Karasin also noted that he is worried about the situation in Latvia, where legal documents and recommendations of the UN, the Council of Europe and the OSCE are violated due to the closure of Russian schools.. In other Baltic countries, the situation also raises serious concerns.. "Persecution and sometimes repression against Russian-speaking activists continue. This is, first of all, the inclusion of “black lists”, “preventive” conversations in the security agencies, pressure on children, “payments” for refusing to participate in the movement in defense of the rights of Russians, ”the Deputy Foreign Minister added. The head of the Latvian public organization "Association against Nazism" Janis Kuzins believes that the Ukrainian authorities are learning "from the nationalist-minded elite of the Baltic states".

Therefore, it is important to ensure that international organizations influence the situation in these countries and contribute to ensuring that discrimination stops.. The EU reacts sluggishly to what is happening in the Baltic States for political reasons, because otherwise it will have to be acknowledged that history is being rewritten, and that the Russian-speaking minority is constantly under pressure. So says MEP Jaromir Kokhlichyok, who is confident that finding a way to influence the leadership of these states is easier than ever.
