That's not the case anymore. All children born to non-citizens since 2020 get Latvian nationality. Without needing to bomb anyone to shit.

As far as colonisers go, Russians in the Baltic got off easy.

Kudos to Latvian government for admitting the mistake (at least partially).

As far as colonisers go, Russians in the Baltic got off easy.

Ahaha, colonisers. Guess having Baltic states unified under Ostland would've played better

Yes, the two only alternatives, German occupation, and Russian occupation. Or maybe the lesser evil is still evil.

Genuinely that was the only two options at the time.

Poor Stalin, he had no choice but to do a secret deal with the Nazis to split up eastern Europe, and then he had to follow up with as much of it has possible after the Germans backstabbed him /s
