Russia plays the Baltic scenario: why the threat to Europe is growing

According to hvylya.net: Ukrainian experts noted that Russia has started to play the card of 'protecting the Russian-speaking population' in the Baltic countries. Recently, Russian propaganda has attracted attention due to Latvia's decision to deport Russian citizens who failed the Latvian language exam.

Speaker of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin is outraged by the 'humiliation and oppression' of Russian-speaking citizens and called for their 'protection'. Leonid Slutsky has already promised to take in all those deported, calling them 'part of the 'Russian world'.'

Experts believe that such statements are part of Russia's information aggression and may serve as a pretext for further provocations. It is important to remember that this is just one element of the Kremlin's long-term strategy aimed at increasing influence in this region and justifying possible aggressive actions.
