and in latvia about 16%, that is, inflation. in latvia, twice as high as in the united states of america in the meantime, high inflation devours the american dream, us residents are extremely pessimistic . so according to the last questions, 38% of the respondents stated that they to live worse than before, only the price of gasoline is growing by 4-5 cents daily and this happened during the reign of joe biden. we are in an inflationary spiral. i have never seen such a thing. i remember the inflation of the late seventies, but this has never happened, which amazes me. so this is how fast prices are rising, so people are so nervous when this stops today in the country there are very pessimistic moods. their cause, the inflationary spiral people are scared people are angry 38% said the situation gets worse if the third population is the worst after one and a half years of biden. this does not paint the democrats with inflation. devours the american dream lithuanians are reaping the fruits of the thoughtless policy of their authori

olga kruglii learned how ukrainians live in latvia now. we sort through and put together again and it is still usually ruslana came to latvia in the first month of the war with her children, she was looking for a place where ukrainians gather and i got to the volunteer center in riga, which then just started its work, now here and helps other immigrants by itself, because people from all over latvia started to tear down a lot of things, a lot of them . began, well, a very large influx of people to ukraine. that's why everything gradually grew into such a help center. we all do what needs to be done when the store was opened . the volunteer center is open to people every day. here you can get clothes, dishes, household goods, baby food and hygiene products for children. we have set up a special toy area in viks for more than 10 years. we have been helping families in latvia for over 10 years, and on february 24, together with other volunteers, we decided to help ukraine. we started from a small room, but on the fourth day of the war, they realized that we needed something more, a donat

then education in all languages ​​should be completely stopped in latvia, except for latvian, primarilyh, of course, and russian is trying to remove everything connected with russia from public life not for the first time, so far unsuccessfully, but not experienced the level of russophobia that swept europe after the start of a special military operation and actively fueled by the united states gives latvian politicians hope that now what they have planned will become real this is clearly haunted by the long-term policy of gradually ousting all russian due results, according to them, they did not give the process, they decided to speed up very soon, russian children will be able to study only as part of an elective program for this, the government even promises to allocate a target financing, but it is difficult to believe the statements, if only because the very word russian is being diligently bypassed by the latvian authorities. in the meantime, the language is still taught in schools, the subject has been renamed. now. it is our minority language and literature. what a language, who

the amendments were adopted to the treaty between latvia and russia signed by moskvich in 1994 .suspended, which provided for the obligations of latvia to ensure the safety of memorial structures in the republic many years. e, it was created artificially supported to take the monument to itself after dismantling, offered the leningrad region, crimea, while latvia refused this request, this week a flash mob started in riga. soviet heritage residents take pictures in the building complexes with the hashtag of the action on their background and post the footage on social networks. at the same time, as the expert notes, the dismantling of these buildings and new structures in their place will be very beneficial for the already poor latvian budget nikolai sokolov to lead the patriarch of moscow of all russia kirill arrived in minsk today, his visit is timed to coincide with the celebration of the 1,030th anniversary of orthodoxy in the belarusian lands, which is celebrated this year . well , today the patriarch laid flowers at the victory monument in minsk on red square these days you

from latvia, there is a reservation for the dates of the slavic bazaar in vitebsk for tourists. why less restrictions, the better on the twenty-second . no, a large group of tourists from latvia , they are interested in them all over eastern belarus, vitebsk orsha mogilev to the sovetsky bazaar between tourists from estonia from narva travel from klaipe for tourists baltic groups are long-awaited guests and at the festival braslav lightning. this year, visa-free delegations again diversified the program of the international creative forum, the belarusian border. guests from the baltic states cross quickly and as comfortably as possible. urban checkpoint . recently refurbished enlarged number of lanes and jobs since april 15, almost 17,000 citizens of lithuania and latvia have entered belarus through urban areas without visas a. c. in general, this figure is several times higher throughout the country. more than 55,000 foreigners took advantage of the opportunity of visa-free entry to the republic of belarus. in particular, more than 37,000 citizens of lithuania and about 18,000

the history of latvia is collective. it should not happen again before the occupation. people lived in an independent country. we do not think that integration with older people and children were simply deported overnight. it is a constant reminder that people can get a similar experience again. and many people in latvia believe that what is happening in ukraine now is the same thing that happened to us several decades ago, which unfortunately may happen again. mrs. hanna from ukraine has been living in latvia for more than 50 years, and today she also came to commemorate repressed, because her family also survived the horror of the soviet occupation, soviet soldiers appeared in western ukraine in march 1944, my father was taken to prison, kept in prison when my mother brought a clean shirt and a piece of bread, she spoke in russian, he knocked out and nothing else. and to this day i don't know what they did with him. they made this day very important not only for lotoshin, but also for me. high-ranking officials of latvia and members of the association of the repressed

we support it in latvia apparently they feel it and therefore. media scorched earth tactics. at first, they limited the broadcasting of our media under the pretext of sanctions, and now they simply introduce a total blocking of all russian there are about 80 tv channels, including those that show a ban with the wording of a threat to the independence of other states. this is how russia should be afraid. in general, since june 9, nothing russian on latvian television. only rain, open air. wait in latvia will dictate the agenda to dictate the speakers. uh, to dictate plots, a wandering informational brothel that has found its home on latvian soil. these are opposition journalists who have not been journalists for a long time. all uh types and colors, and the principle for them one. why, if you please, but no one believes this carrier to the end, let's take marina ovsyannikova, who, after a well-known story on russian tv under the german develt, went to kiev and curses fell on her, allegedly. she is a veiled kremlin agent oatmeal now want to ban ent

they call it the latvian festival of cultures, our radiation in latvia.ere are about 70,000 people and all of them today. regardless of the types and views of euro officials, they remain patriots of our country and gladly return to their small historical homeland. mom, of course, she was from the gomel region spent all her childhood in belarus in the summer, this belarusian language and belarusian traditions. we have such a big the household had both a cow and a chicken pig, and therefore everything is close and everything is understandable. i think that the belarusians of latvia are always close to belarus, we are neighboring states, so this is not even discussed in our supremacy. we don’t need any problems, but it’s not bad yet that it’s spreading beyond the borders of belarus those who came to the axis before us and once again they weren’t afraid and they are fit. it has its own way of life of the inhabitants, and it attracts, therefore it does not warm very much not to find its stay. today we mind here by a fisherman's house was opened in the neighbor

he spoke about latvia.said that russia looks at the world, looks at neighboring countries like latvia, not at all the way we do. he says that we consider latvia a sovereign, independent state. which has the right to decide to solve its own affairs, russia said he considers latvia to be a part of which it can have claims therefore it is obvious that what is happening in ukraine can be a threat to the baltic countries and to poland and poland and so on he said that the war has become a terrible burden at a terrible price for ukraine, he even has such a figure, five billion dollars are spent on the war, go to the war every month, and that is why he emphasized the fact that support for the west in ukraine needs a multifaceted e financial military armed forces, he especially focused on the fact that the western allies could provide ukraine with such weapons so that russia could no longer destroy and destroy ukrainian cities, what we have seen unfortunately, just recently, among ukraine's partners, nato is not th

not only latvia in general in the baltic states, of course, unprecedented. uh, pressure.be in all forms. these can be administrative fines, they can close you at the bank, almost take people away on the street, because for like e in social networks there are wordings that have no legal basis at all. there uh, not loyal to the authorities. justified genocide justified military aggression, and this is indeed far from being only in latvia if judging by the results of a survey published in slovakia, 65% of european respondents perceive russia as a threat to security. and here is another headline from poland anti-russian sentiment. the poles are even stronger than the ukrainians. it is not surprising that even a cafe in neighboring germany with a sign of russia was not left without attention, but according to no, to me a month ago russia was the same normal country was a normal side. this is the worst country, you are all despised and while british lawyers began to refuse russian clients, the estonians, went even further, saying that even the mere fact of cooperation with orga

he justified genocide, justified military aggression, and this is true not only in latvia .slovakia, the survey results show that 65% of european respondents perceive russia as a security threat. and here is another headline from poland anti-russian sentiment. the poles are even stronger than the ukrainians. it is not surprising that even cafes in neighboring germany with a signboard of russia did not go unnoticed. the former country despises you all, and while british lawyers began to refuse russian clients, estonians went even further, stating that even the mere fact of cooperation with organizations from russia is now sufficient grounds for persecution. in addition, the authorities seriously thought about the fact that they were sewing the voting rights of the inhabitants of the country of those who have a russian passport, as the estonian politician said . almost half of the population of tallinn is russian-speaking. i am i think that those who have a russian passport in their pocket probably do not consider it an ideal for estonia to preserve it as a nation state, but d

latvia has another purely.ctober, parliamentary elections and speeches in the seimas with a speech on language and national security are now perhaps the only thing for latvian politicians, perhaps the electoral program not to talk about record inflation, an increase in valuable energy for the population by more than 60%. andrey zuevkevich irina chernyshova the execution of the russian budget last year turned out to be the best in the last 5 years, but if there is a violation of the inspection of state bodies and the execution of the budget reported today, the head of the accounts chamber, alexei kudrin, at a meeting with vladik, jet buildings drag on for months and even years. uh and we celebrate these things, the operation of the building has not yet been delivered . well, this is a very common remark, but i want to note that the government for 5 years. e, maximum e, fulfilled the budget for the first time by 97.5%. the highest percentage of spending. despite the fact that during the year, taking into account

, even non-citizens of latvia, take with them a valid document for the right to cross the border - asport. here if they follow the vehicle on a personal basis, which means that they must take insurance with them, the so-called green card and insurance. like any individual, the border guard does not control her, but she certainly arrives. well, the only thing. we must not forget that within the framework of visa-free entry, if a foreign citizen arrives with us for more than 30 days, why because , by agreement with our neighbors, they stay for a day without registration, if more, you need to contact the migration authorities to register for entry in the sense that how much since you can generally enter without a visa there for a year, for example, you can lie down at least every day, but you must remember that visa-free entry implies that foreigners stay in the country for 90 days in a calendar year. so let's remind our viewers what has changed in the rules for entry and exit to belarus of foreign citizens of russians belarusians, in principle, the only thing that has changed is that t

every 4th person living in latvia is of russian descent. recently, he was verbally assaulted by a passer by in his hometown. inter soliz wants to change the perspective of his fan swan. some day he hopes to return to russia and perform again, or maybe even bring his kids as well. but only if it's a new russia one without who to ah, european champion, italy is one of the greatest soccer nations in the world. now the country has added a whole new team. it consists of nuns from the vatican and has big ambitions. soccer is also women's game. thank god. sister emilia gets the game underway. this is italy's national team of nuns. it sisters against sisters football in the name of the lord. god, i love football because it strengthens the community. i see kong, etc. we're all from different orders. but here we're united as a team eco meds are and we have one mission i r g. i'm your sister, amelia and regina against g 3. okay. sister amelia has been part of the sister's football club for about a year. there are 18 nuns on the team age between 27 and 52. between every sunday outside rome. but not

this morning, date of li, spoke to latvia as prime minister about his country security challenges as a neighbor of russia and about the decision to offer you candidacy to ukraine. prime minister the decision to grant ukraine in moldova candidate status is being described as a historic decision. why is it so significant from your point of view? well, it's so significant for, for many reasons. one is it, it, it literally extends the hand of friendship and of openness to a country which is in a war right now with russia and mold of, of which is also very vulnerable. but may be more important for us. europeans is that we are once again in the business of looking to expand, looking to have the, the, the family of democratic nations grow ever larger. and i think this is a good signal to all of europe because as a europe has gained more and more member states, and these are member states which are ready to join, which have undergone the reforms which have democratic governance, or the rule of law in all of this it increases all of our well being, so the well being in germany in france in pa

i spent the russian union of latvia around the town hall square, put up reinforced police squads usingtuation in order to get as far as possible. that is why demolitions of monuments are being started; education in languages ​​of national appearance is prohibited , including in our maternity hospital in russian. in mid-may, on the 7th junior final reading , amendments to the law were adopted, which remove legal obstacles to the demolition of the monument to the soldiers of the soviet army, the amendments adopted by the agreement between latvia and russia signed in moscow back in 1994. now the operation of one article, which provided for the obligations of latvia , is suspended. memorial buildings in the republic, the purpose of that conflict is not to demolish a commemorative cardboard, to sort out, let's say, a serious inter-external conflict situation, not a new situation, systemic for many years. e, it was created artificially supported to take the monument to itself after dismantling, offered the leningrad region, crimea, while latvia refused this request, this week a flash mob sta

latvia is the only country in the world where two statuses are officially accepted and about 10 lithuanianzens are at the service of tourists in a wide range of medical services, including electrical, phototherapy, carboxy reflex therapy, consultations of narrow specialists, the possibility of conducting ultrasound examinations before the pandemic in the nineteenth year for the last time. we were, well we really like it. here, firstly, the environment is so friendly. where are you? we still have a husband?

that is, this is the biggest occupier that has ever been in latvia. his house. and every morning you wake up in his bedroom. now imagine you are stepping out. here together, where the most important occupier of latvia lived and wake up every morning. in his bedroom, it doesn't remind you of the occupation. maybe the villa you live in should also be demolished. well, here's a question. that's interesting, in ukraine, too, is trying to destroy everything that is connected with the soviet union, which reminds him of the soviet past, the question of whether they will bury the metro. we are even in your question. that's how i feel sarcasm, but it's such a tragic sarcasm, yes, because if you tear down everything that's been done, there'll be nothing left under the soviet union. the point is that the task is to in order to demolish what was in the soviet, this is a man, yes, well, the right message, he says, he ’s addressing, so, uh, he remembers kosygin, but you see, the concessor is already making a mistake, he was the chairman of the council of ministers

we speak to the bank of latvia governor. this is bloomberg. ♪ francine: welcome back to the open. 10 minutes into the european trading day. seeing stocks elevated, just because there is restrictions easing in china. we are back in sintra for the ecb forum kicking off with president lagarde due to give her keynote at 9:00 a.m. u.k. time. joining me now is martins kazaks , the latvia bank central governor. talk to be about what the ecb, could do in, july, this 25 basis point still of the table. martins: my base case is 25 in july, 50 in september. it is just natural, with the current situation, it was the right move. francine: we are looking at inflation at another record high, what would warrant a 50 basis point hike? martins: it is what happened to the labor market, what happened to the anchoring of expectations? do the expectation start going up. do we see that -- becomes more regular, more often. in this case, nipping the bud as the president has said. in my view, frontloading in this case would be a reasonable choice. fra

from latvia there is also a reservation for the dates of the slavic bazaar in vitebsk for the dumbassless there are no restrictions, the better from the 22nd, a large group of tourists. you know, they are interested in them all over eastern belarus, vitebsk and mogilev to the sovetsky bazaar between tourists from estonia from narva, tourists from klaipe for tourists, baltic groups are long-awaited guests and braslav lightning lightning at the festival. this year, visa-free delegations again diversified the program of the international creative forum, the belarusian border. guests from the baltic states cross quickly and as comfortably as possible. urban checkpoint. recently reconstructed increased the number of lanes and since april 15, nearly 17,000 citizens of lithuania and latvia have entered belarus through urban areas without visas. c. in general, this figure is several times higher throughout the country. more than 55,000 foreigners took advantage of the opportunity of visa-free entry to the republic of belarus. in particular, more than 37,000 citizens of lithuania and about 18,

now it seems not enough, and now in neighboring latvia, calls from the former head of the ministry ofl affairs are heard on tv to take away the exclave. from russia, the restriction of transit to the kaliningrad region is the first step of europe and nato towards taking kaliningrad, the former capital of east prussia, from russia. i began to think that europe perfectly understands what the lithuanians are doing. even better understood everything. i think a clear signal has been sent to the russians. if you show off, we'll take koenigsberg. this is the consequences of yalta and nuremberg. but this is yesterday. and here it is, if we continue the rhetoric of maris gulbis, the day before yesterday's map of europe before the second world war. vilnius is generally a polish city. gdansk is a german danzig in east prussia and indeed, everything to the west is the knowledge of the territory, not poland but the third reich. in general, if the baltic countries or poland want to revise, for example, the results of the yalta conference, then, perhaps, a lot will have to be returned, including rus

now i remind you, it broadcasts from latvia and now also recognized and on the agent of the so-calledinc network specific targeting. for which audience? what kind of fakes to beat employees of anti-russian editorial offices are taught at special seminars. here is the project director, zinc network igor zinatullin, who is also the main contact. on interaction with the british foreign office and the us state department by the way, a. this is roman shutov, he is a consultant in zinc, part-time expert on disinformation for the government of ukraine . this can be said to be an official position of network work. uh, persons directly connected both with the government of great britain and fair ukraine. i am talking about roman sutov and other persons. in particular, mr. shutov, as far as i know, is the contact person between the british foreign office and the media forces that serve the interests of the kiev regime. shutov worked in the oip. this is another partner zinc network stands for open information partnership forinos network center, funding again from the british type the projects co

the russian operation in the balka countries, the inflation rate exceeds the european average in latviah was 16.4% on an annualized basis due to growth. prices 300,000 pensioners will not be able to pay bills in winter. heating is reported by the bolt news publication, according to its data, every tenth pensioner. in latvia receive less than 200 euros per month, another 13% receive a pension of 200 to 300 euros, meanwhile in the winter for utilities for a one-room apartment. reached up to 150 euros. and this is in addition to spending on everything that is becoming more expensive food or medicine. according to this, it’s just that in lithuania, due to inflation, half of the citizens limit themselves in spending, and the elderly are forced to save on food, while a decision was made to change the product taxation system in that rich people will now pay much less than poor people, as answered the lithuanian political scientist. christopher boska people may soon even stop driving cars fuel continues to rise according to him, the visa-free regime with belarus for many lithuanians saves price

health in belarusian health resorts , so in the lepel military sanatorium the flow of tourists from latvia to lithuania has doubled these days over the past 1.5 months. more than 20 citizens and non-citizens rest and receive treatment here. latvia is the only country in the world where two statuses are officially accepted and about 10 lithuanian citizens at the service of tourists, a wide range of medical services, electroinjection, light therapy, carboxy reflex therapy, appointments, consultations of narrow specialists, the possibility of conducting ultrasound examinations before the pandemic in the nineteenth year for the last time. we were, well we really like it. here, firstly, the atmosphere is so friendly, or even where you were in every possible way, and our husband still has belarusian roots. and i have russians. eh, here the soul rests. he is the baltic states, everything, the population loves us all the patients. love always came very upset when they could not come. they called, they all asked when, firstly, the quality. we all note this culture of service - everyone also notes t

and in latvia, all russian tv channels were banned until the end. of the war and to the return of crimea to ukraine my greetings to all who are with us, i will tell the news in java melnyk together with the espresso editorial team, well, let's start with the fact that the russians shelled the mykolaiv region, as a result of which 29 people were injured, one person died, the head of the mykolaiv regional council, anna zamazeeva, reported that enemy strikes were recorded in the bashtan and mykolaiv districts, in the shykivskyi berezneguvatskyi and halytsenivskyi communities, houses were damaged and in the mykolaiv regional center , residential buildings and commercial buildings were damaged. currently, almost three hundred people are in mykolaiv hospitals that suffered from the attacks of the occupiers and the russian nazis have a tenfold advantage in artillery in severodonetsk about this the head of military intelligence kyrylo budanov visited the city the day before to familiarize himself with the operational situation, the department said that despite the superiority of the enemy, ukrai

front, he will have to scan the situation and then he can also try to do something with lithuania latviaed after the meeting with lukashenko he got promises, assurances that lukashenka was a puppet, he was a puppet, so he remains one, and any initiative of putin will support for lukashenka the possibility of having nuclear weapons in general, this is a gift of fate, he dreamed about it for many years, because it is not blackmailing migrants, it is missiles with nuclear weapons. this is much scarier for lukashenko as well - it is also a guarantee of such political control, but as he rightly said to valery that putin will make sure that these missiles, even when they fall on belarusian territory, do not fell into the hands of lukashenka, then lukashenko can become too independent. mr. prank said that the food or the belarusian society to what extent it is now able to influence the system in general, on lukashenka personally, well, how do the belarusians understand that they are now shooting from their territory regarding civilians in ukraine, i will add that president zelensky yesterday an

because, in parallel, russian television is telling such strange fantasies about the baltic countries, latvia, ordinary baltic states, and not accidentally trade their rotten russophobia on every corner baltic poles with a fifth you see to kill as many russians as possible, namely russians will weaken our country with you as much as possible, only later will he get better and make claims, for example, ivan city, the entrance to kaliningrad, who makes claims to other countries, only russians and more moreover, they have now started talking again about some natural borders, see that is the theory of natural borders, yes, the natural border in our country is the first one, it is the dnieper, of course , and the second one the border is the carpathians, well, this raises the question , to be honest, the questions of the legal border, the dnieper can be, and the dnieper is not. well, wait, the dnieper can be, of course, the carpathians can’t be, so why don’t you know the atlantic, these natural borders are something exactly like it was the nazis have a living space and here they also describe thei

the new law adopted in latvia stipulates that in latvia they cannot work on cry-tv channels registered in countries that threaten the independence of other countries, even channels such as tv illusion plus kino 24 were banned. and even hunting and fishing because there are no good russian tv channels, whether they are hunting and fishing or illusion, they are all russian and they are all imperial, we do not think so minister of foreign affairs yet the federation he also calls it russian. sergey lavrov commented on bulgaria's ban on the passage of his plane over montenegro and north macedonia. he was supposed to fly to serbia for a meeting with his serbian colleague over their territories. she stated that nato and the eu have deprived a sovereign country. it is obvious that serbia is talking about the right to direct its internal of foreign policy about the fact that his country, russia, denies our right to exist in general and about aggression against us. he obviously did not say a single word. of the unified anti-russian position of the west, well, to conclude, a little bit of surreal

of the electric ring, which, of course, is a very sensitive project for lithuania, as well as for latvia estonia i will remind russia and belarus lithuania latvia estonia i think that it is probably wrong to exchange blows in this way, they are trying to draw us into provocations once again. if lithuania behaves like this, we emphasize it in an absolutely unreasonable way. we reserve the right to consider the possibility of answering the steps. although now i emphasize to get involved in provocations and take any symmetrical steps. i voiced them, but for now we mean it, purely theoretically, just so that our lithuanian colleagues meant what they were being dragged into in the far west. well, as for your second question, dmitry, uh, the export of grain from ukraine according to the un conference on trade and development and the un food and agriculture organization, that is, yungtat and fau. now in the world there is no physical e, food shortages, there are problems with the distribution of agro-industrial goods and their delivery to consumers back in the twentieth year, the united nations

so the most relatives came from latvia, then the yanas kept calling, they were talking.all the president for the fact that this is visa-free. well, the poles did not enter there. they still come here, latvians and fat people, because of the coronavirus, the festival of national cultures, they haven’t held 4 years. per this time has changed so much not to discuss what is happening around it is impossible, therefore it was also about discrimination against belarusians in germany and the procedure for demolishing monuments in poland and the baltic states. but this is the case when it is necessary to share the opinion of specific speakers and the majority, how the lithuanians in belarus live wonderfully in belarus live bait. you have a beautiful country and wonderful people. see how happy everyone is to see us. and belarusians will be just as happy to see in lithuania if we go through our costumes, nationally. i personally have several belarusian friends. and no no problem. with this, there was no latvian diaspora at the festival this year, but ours from riga came moreover f

wait in latvia will dictate the agenda to dictate the speakers.tional brothel that has found its home on latvian soil. this opposition journalists who have not been journalists for a long time. all a-a species and stripes, but the principle for them is the same. whatever you want, but no one believes this translator to the end, let's take marina ovsyannikova, who, after a well-known story on russian tv with a german dewelt, went to kiev and curses fell on her, allegedly. she is a veiled kremlin agent ovsyannikova now want to ban entry to ukraine to ban culture minister tkachenko asks. and who even started hatred in certain circles, uh ukrainian figures are so great to everything russian that they try to reach the closest russian to them , ironically, the closest russians turn out to be those who, well, in fact, the latvian rain betrayed their homeland in the information field, is unlikely to focus on the broadcasting body and say experts, rather youtube and instant messengers. so it’s easier to collect donations in russia on agents constantly begg

the ruling elite of latvia becomes, especially evident after reading and recalling the prime ministerrowing up in england is similar to those latvians who, after the war, created latvian schools abroad. this is now happening in england where latvian schools appear like mushrooms after the rain, because otherwise the children will not speak latvian and will not know their native latvian literature, it also follows the logic, what is good and welcome for latvian children in other countries is unacceptable for russians in latvia but in 2004, when in latvia for the first time they wanted to completely squeeze the russian language out of school and the citizens opposed the mass reform, the authorities promised that teaching in russian would be kept, but these promises were forgotten with the change of government. now even the optional study of russian authorities offer to replace the study of german or french to teach them who wished a few years ago. we wanted to expand the choice of foreign languages. for students who wanted to teach italian and spanish and french, a teacher vacancy was o

he's taking a stance at long last, as many here in latvia are saying.started posting information and videos about the war on his social-media channels. he wants to confront his russian fans with the reality of the invasion. to show the death and devastation which they don't see on strictly state-controlled russian tv. the images shocked his fans -- and many reacted. >> it's a huge paradox. the biggest fans who wrote the nicest comments have turned into the biggest enemies. they've gone crazy, attacking me. >> it isn't without risk for busulis. we filmed at his barn, but he asked us not to show where he lives, because those who consume russian state media live in their own echo chamber. nearly a quarter of latvians are ethnically russian. putin's propaganda has reached the baltic republic, driving a wedge through the population. on may 9, the day marking victory over nazi germany, tens of thousands lay flowers at soviet memorials in riga. many of them support the war of aggression against ukraine, which russian propaganda has portrayed as a battle agains
