The mayor of Riga about those who are going to ban Russian schools in Latvia: "Nerds trying to earn political capital on children"

Riga Mayor Nil Ushakov, to put it mildly, unflatteringly spoke about those Latvian officials who offer to leave training in Latvia exclusively in Latvian. In an interview with a Latvian newspaper Latvijas avīze Ushakov said that someone is simply going to make political capital for themselves at the expense of children.

TASS gives a fragment of the statement of the Riga mayor:

We live in a fragile world, full of problems - what will happen to the EU, to refugees, and, I apologize, some nerds cannot be allowed to earn political capital at the expense of children. Now I am in favor of the fact that the existing system in national minority schools in Latvia should not be touched in any way. It works perfectly, and for her, no one should be allowed to collect political points.

At the same time, Nil Ushakov added that graduates, for example, Russian-speaking schools, know the Latvian language sometimes better than graduates of schools where instruction is conducted exclusively in Latvian. According to the mayor of the Latvian capital, education in Russian-language schools is conducted on the basis of programs approved by the Latvian core ministry, and therefore there is nothing illegal in the existence of such schools in Latvia.

It should be recalled that as soon as the new Cabinet of Ministers is in power in Latvia, the topic of persecution of the Russian language and Russian-speaking schools immediately rises. Apparently, the country's authorities forget that the number of Russian-speaking citizens in the country exceeds 43% of the total population of the proud Baltic republic, and that the opinion of these citizens is hard to ignore.

Well done Ushakov is fighting, but I can imagine how hard it is for him.

[cheap trick]

he has a very strong position and support in Latvia. here in lithuania and estonia, things are completely at the seams with Russian-speaking politicians. They all pushed aside, and criminal cases were opened on some.

[andris_74]

A good mayor does more for the city than all taken together before him, because the residents of Riga do not let him gobble it up long ago.

There is no freebie from fascington other than a pat on the ass. There is an increase in the military budget due to health care, social protection, education! Well, and an unspoken permission to steal the budget. As it is, He is of course p.d.o.n.k. but this is our p.o.d.n.o.k. This is about the Latvian "elite" in power.

Well, for example, there are 800 lyamo Euros per year for all kinds of projects. Last year, 100 didn’t even figure out where to master it.
And in the second part I agree to half. Not our he, albeit p-to. The main strategy of him and Mamykins is to use the Russian-speaking electorate for political goals, but God forbid in conjunction with Russia. It is enough to read Ms's articles about the eastern neighbor and his people.
Something like this ...

Well, dill tried in 2014 and what did you get? Civil war in the Donbass, Crimea fled home to Russia, a lot of problems in the economy, the country is actually occupied by mattresses, and soon there will be no able-bodied population in the Baltic, everyone who can scatter across Europe. And so there would be no riots. The NATO troops have pulled the entire Baltic.

The mayor is handsome, understands perfectly well where the main money comes from!

[vodolaz]

Yes, their languages ​​will soon become dead, and they all pose as proud and independent states.

I myself grew up in Lithuania, there are many of ours. Moreover, the local themselves are to blame, spread rot all Russian.

[Russian jacket]

And how has he not been recorded as Putin’s agents?

[Samaritan]

Yes, it’s been recorded for a long time, simply the Latvians are in principle normal, I would put it as appropriate: Latvians, Estonians, Lithuanians, and somewhere between them Ukrainians. ..

[andris_74]

By nationality, the adequacy is not judged correctly, the percentage of clinical ones is almost the same everywhere and it is low, another thing is that many do not know how to think and evaluate critically, they are driven by the fact that they drive in every day. Familiar and worked with dozens of Balts, Poles, Ukrainians and other Moldovans.

[Kibl]

Neil has problems with the administration of Riga, but who doesn’t have it? He has long been expected to be the Prime Minister of Latvia, but the local Natsik choppers will lay their bones to prevent this! Well, smart leaders are not needed in Latvia, they are not needed! It’s better to put another ram, shuffle the cabinet and everything in a bunch! From year to year, the ministers are simply transferred to other ministries, well, just like in Grandfather Krylov’s fable! The musicians are bad, UUUUUUU sssssststsuuki !!!!

[however78]

Neil is a Russian man, I wonder how he is still working as mayor, or are Latvians progressing?

Ushakov well done, not afraid to tell the truth

[mr.grin19z]

right now they are pecking and on the other hand you need to express your opinion

[Izotovp]

43% is temporary. Gradually, their number will decrease as the more popular for them will be Latvian and English. And then the final conquest of this territory will take place. A conquered country does not become when the soldier’s boot is approved, but when the language is changed and the children are brought up in the right direction. This already happened in Russia when they switched from the Glagolitic to Cyrillic and only the top story remained, this is now happening before our eyes in the territory of Kievan Rus: the forcible introduction of artificial newspeak under the brand of the Ukrainian language and the teaching of history to children in it.

[ava09]

(C) "Nerds trying to make political capital on children" (C)
1. The enemy of the Russians, even in Latvia, is not necessarily a nerd ...
2. Political capital cannot be earned on children.
The warped consciousness of the children will bear fruit later, the consequences will be destructive and unpredictable as well as in Ukraine and in Russia as well.
So far, the desire to earn "political capital" can be traced in Ushakov himself, because he does not call the enemy an enemy.

[afrikanez]

I think that Russians living in Latvia will never forget their native language. But even if they forget, then they are worthless. the choice in any case for the Latvians.

There, the generations of the cat already cried. They stretched west and further back in the 90s, so the need to learn the Russian language will die out over time by itself.

Who forgot - he re-learned, so in the summer hundreds of thousands of Petersburgers have a rest, as in Tallinn ...

Of course this is good, but it seems to me another PR from the mayor ... (when I wrote, it seems to me, the song sounded about a wedge of cranes from a young Cabzon ... coincidence, I don’t think ....

I generally wonder how Neil Ushakov is still alive there. Well done man, leads the right policy.

I take off my hat, there are still adequate people in the world

[Mountain shooter]

Latvia, Latvia! Where are you going? Why does this question arise at all? And such categories of the population are “not citizens”. Untermensch of fascist Germany. And the tolerant geyrope giggles shyly, turning away and not noticing ...

[PCF]

In Latvia, according to off-data, a million were blamed for earnings in Europe, and according to eyes, most of the people under 40 turned up the shelter. In the glorious port city of Liepaja (the former largest base of the DKBF), out of almost 200 thousand under the Union, about 70 thousand remained, while the economically active population that pays taxes remained about 30 thousand (for 2015).
So here we are taking leaps and bounds into the hidden depths of the European anus

But I wonder why you didn't "dumped" to Russia ? Do you really like to live in the secret depths of the Eurasian anus ..

They will soon speak Arabic and Pashto, but cling to Russian. D, B.

[sharp-lad]

Unfortunately, we and you have too many nerds. Among my relatives, friends and acquaintances of Latvians, this is not a question; it is enough for them that a Russian child who has graduated from almost a Russian school in Latvia is able to communicate reasonably in Latvian, write and read fluently without too serious mistakes. I repeat once again, we have too many cretins breaking into power, but it's a pity.

[cheap trick]

the same thing in Lithuania. they learn the Lithuanian language, learned well done, it didn’t work out, they help. and Lithuanians and Lithuanians themselves look crookedly at the politicians !!! they already got everyone.

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

It seems that the Baltic states have begun to rock ... the United States wants to provoke the Russian revolt of the Russian world through its puppets and then blame Russia for everything ... They really need to declare Russia an evil empire again in order to completely block Russian hydrocarbon exports to Europe, because they they want to occupy this market themselves, but they can’t do it by market means, their liquefied gas is much more expensive than our pipeline ...

I watch, if there is an opportunity for his position in relation to the Russians. In my opinion, one of the few pragmatists understands that you need to look at least 20-30 years ahead.
