Latvian Diet equates USSR soldiers to those who fought on the side of Nazi Germany

The Seimas of Latvia in the final reading adopted a law on the status of a participant in the Second World War, which will be received by Latvian citizens who fought both on the side of the USSR and on the side of Nazi Germany.

According to the bill, only those Latvian citizens who were as of June 17 of the year 1940 and who fought in regular units against the USSR and Nazi Germany from that day to September 1 of September 1945 can become participants of the war in Latvia.

This means that non-citizens, as well as all Latvians who fought with the Nazi invaders in the underground, in partisan units, would not be recognized as participants of the war in Latvia. That is, if two fighters, for example, in 1944, were sitting in the same trench, while today one of them is a non-citizen, he will not be recognized as a participant in the war in Latvia. Even the fighter who passed naturalization will not be recognized as a participant in the war.

- explains the publication BaltNews.

Those who still will be officially recognized as a participant in the war will be given a certificate and a badge. Former members of the Nazi Party, the Gestapo, as well as former KGB officers and soldiers of the Soviet bases who appeared in Latvia in accordance with the Soviet-Latvian mutual aid pact of October 5 from 1939 cannot count on status.

From the state of material support to veterans is not allowed. Veterans will still have to document their compliance with the criteria. It is characteristic that the presence of the Russian status of a veteran of the Great Patriotic War is not in itself a basis for recognition as a participant in the Second World War in Latvia.

The law will come into force on February 1 of 2018.

The devils always and all the upside down. Honestly, I was not surprised. I did not expect another from patients to all parts of the body.

Everything is expected and from patients with Russophobia one should not expect another.

[210ox]

It is a pity that many former citizens of that USSR became these idiots ..

, Dmitry.
I’m looking at the photo and I can’t understand this (supposedly a veteran of the USSR’s SA) gentleman with a St. George ribbon, as he agreed to be photographed with fascist scum. Most likely this picture is staged. As for the content of the note, I would advise the gentlemen of the Baltic states not to poke a stick into the “bear’s lying” - it is fraught. That's at least how their confrontation SP-2 ended.

Why do you think this is?

[alstr]

A photo is a photoshop. This is clearly visible, because the man behind Natsik in the background is cut off and turns into greenery (there you can clearly see the cropped picture).

[Greenwood]

Yes, it’s not a peasant’s business and not Photoshop. These are just two different photos combined into one. They were placed next to a veteran of the Red Army and a Latvian veteran.

thanks to the little talker

And after all this, "our" stars will trample to sing in Jurmala!

[Herculesic]

They are not our stars — they are victims of the Western world!

[Romka47]

Our stars and on the anniversary of Hitler (if he was alive) would be trampled upon for a fee, ***** corrupt.

[oldzek]

Michael55! wake up! Jurmala is long over. already cry come back. but it is in Jurmala itself.

[Herculesic]

I equate the Sejm of Latvia with childhood invalids, patients with Down disease, and Satan worshipers!

[Sergey53]

Do you want to pay them an allowance ?.

[Herculesic]

Let them turn to the USA and their government!

[Sergey53]

By this decision, these cattle humiliated our VETERANS with you.

[oldzek]

so for this it was accepted.

[LiSiCyn]

State support is not provided ... Why, then this ..? And besides, since you are not a participant, you can’t wear any awards .. I think so.

[anjey]

this proves 1001 times that the labuses, as they were mostly fascist henchmen, remained so, and the west turns a blind eye to the anti-Nernberg illegal tricks of these nations ..., someone there is glad of such a revenge ...

[anjey]

strange is the silence of the world Jewish community on such a creep of fascism, God forbid, it will be repeated, they think that due to frenzied Russophobia Russia will become an object of attack by brown forces .. and they themselves will be above the battle, oh and they will sip, although they add fuel to the fire and deaf ignore such things ..., the feeling that they themselves pulled this fascist mask, and the national spirit was always ...

[Herman 4223]

You yourself aren’t a fascist by chance? Accusations on a national basis are a diagnosis. I don’t like what is happening in Latvia, but I would not blame all the Latvians.

[anjey]

read carefully, I didn’t say that everything, and I like the film “long road in the dunes” ...

[The Siberian barber]

These ghouls will still be rewarded, if not in this world, so in that. If not for them, then their children ..

[BMP-2]

It would be better here right away: so that no illusory hopes arise! ...

[Romanych.by]

You won’t be surprised by the tricks of the Baltic states. There is propaganda and glorification of fascism all over the world. I would like to apologize to our grandfathers, great-grandfathers and all those who died in the fight against the Nazis for everything that’s happening now. There’s a concrete rewriting of history. It’s a shame for the present, our generation.

[NKT]

Hmm, of course the photo is mesmerizing. Our veteran sits with a medal for the Victory over Germany and a soldier with a first-class German cross. In Germany, it’s like you can’t wear the Third Reich awards, but here you

[marlin1203]

This is a collage, look carefully

[NKT]

Yeah, I didn’t notice

[Herman 4223]

Why is our government silent on this disgrace? Where appeals to international courts, etc., this can not be left unpunished. As Leo Tolstoy said, non-evil-violence. Fascism should be punished everywhere, a spit in our direction should not remain unanswered!

[CAPTIVE]

As the Baltic states were the litter of the Nazis, crusaders, etc. So they remained! So there is nothing new here.
They will answer for everything later ..

[faiver]

in my opinion it is necessary to impose sanctions for these acts ...

[Reserve buildbat]

And on what basis does Russia maintain "diplomatic and economic relations" with "countries" that justify fascism and honor ss sheep? You just need to culturally hang the "iron curtain" so that from there not a single cockroach enters our territory, and there is not a penny received. And let them die.

[Blackgrifon]

It is possible, but there are railways to Kaliningrad + passing through them; a lot of “non-citizens” live on their territory, the only protection of which is Russia.

[Vitas]

Ordinary fascism, about the Baltic states filmed, it turns out!

[alexhol]

February 16-18, 1943 during the punitive operation "Winter Magic" the village of Rositsa was destroyed. Young people were sent to the Salaspils death camp, some were sent to work in Germany. The remaining residents were burned in the houses, a large group of people were driven into a barn, which was then set on fire. 1528 civilians were killed in the village. [2]

[Angor]

Crazy! Old people lived their lives giving everything they could, their children lived better - in return, their underelicated ones are in a hurry to get rid of them. They are afraid of what to tell their grandchildren as it actually was, not like in a textbook.

edible (their) in a hurry to get rid of them

Moreover, half of the Baltic government officials are from the old nomenclature and former informants: they are used to lying with anyone, just to be full.

[osoboye_mneniye]

"as well as former KGB officers and soldiers of Soviet bases that appeared in Latvia in accordance with the Soviet-Latvian Mutual Assistance Pact of October 5, 1939"

Funny guys ... They themselves admit that the intergovernmental agreements that they conclude can be retroactively recognized by them.
The same direct invitation to wipe feet on Latvia. They do not even understand this themselves)))

[tforik]

Lord, why are all these laws for the elderly? They live a few years left.

[agel26r]

And we allowed them to import sprats in return
