>VILNIUS - Ambassadors of the three Baltic states have asked the German media to stop referring to Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia to as former Soviet republics.
>The Lithuanian Foreign Ministry said the address had been inspired by the Soviet Legacy column on the German news portal ZEIT ONLINE. According to the ministry, the portal responded to the remark, pledging to stop using the concept that is inaccurate in the sense of international law.
>In the letter to the Germany portal, the ambassadors of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia noted that the Baltic states did not join the Soviet union voluntarily but were occupied and annexed, while the majority of Western democracies, including Germany, never recognized the Soviet occupation of the Baltic states, said the ministry.
>The letter also notes that the Baltic states did not create themselves from scratch in the 1990s after the collapse of the Soviet Union but restored their independence that had been severed by the Soviet rule, thus declaring continuity of their statehood. Therefore, the Baltic states are not successors of the Soviet Union's statehood and rights, therefore, cannot be politically defined as former Soviet republics.
Another wonderful day sprinkled with butthurt in Baltistan
Countryballs are not supposed to be perfect circles!
GODDAMNN THAT'S TRIGGERING
Theyre also supposed to give insight or a joke. Not deliberate misinformation/omission.
Soviet rule was shit but latvians don't really have the right to complain and be butthurt since we basically created Soviet Union with our volunteer riflemen.
>Ambassadors of the three Baltic states have asked the German media to stop referring to Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia to as former Soviet republics
I don't see anything wrong with that. Do explain what's butthurt about it if you wish.
seems fair, it'd be like referring to germany as "former nazi reich"
Do you understand, that fairy lands on the picture above simply can not contain a lot of people? Are you decreasing your population to get back old good times?
You do know that the massive population some countries have cannot sustain itself in the long run right? And that resources is finite?
Small elite group of population > Massive amounts of idiotic population
There is nothing wrong in referring to former Soviet republics as former Soviet republics.
This is getting ridiculous. We have some countries who don't want to be referred in this way under any circumstances. Then we have a country that MUST be referred as a "former (insert communist country here) republic of..." in ALL circumstances.
Maybe they couldn't sustain their factories and nuclear power plant as well? Did they give up their manufacturing so their education wasn't required, so they could destroy education system as well and idiotic part of population increased while population in general decreased?
For God's sake, they are white, not niggers.
and boom that article is all truth, i didn't think we had any non jewish media left in the world at all
It's like referring to a woman that got kidnapped, held in a basement and raped for several years as "ex-girlfriend of Jamal"
Estonia has one of the best education systems in the world. We're also far wealthier than you, average wage is nearly 3x what it is in Russia.
"muh manufacturing". Estonia has a modern, service based economy that's geared towards the future, with a world leading IT sector. You are going to collapse all over again when the oil runs out, Ivan.
>service sector is the future
have fun losing your job to the most outsourced job in existence. Atleast the Industry/Production sector you have to go through the effort of building factories.
You are basically the US army base, not a country.
If I may
I don't think you'll find many Estonians saying Swedish occupation was terrible senpai, those times are called "Vana hea rootsi aeg (good old swedish time" here.
We love you too, please come back to us :3
...
Stop that cuck shit and lets get the family back together
>leaving behind schools, hospitals, libraries?
you mean the broken post-soviet education system, shitty soviet architecture with houses built from literal garbage? or you're talking about the humongous collection of latvian folksongs and tales made by 20th century Latvian nationalism revolutionary?
you've been eating a lot of shit if you can talk so much shit my dude.
Daily reminder the baltic butthurt belt "countries" are russians in denial.
>created Soviet Union with our volunteer riflemen.
please elaborate
go back to siberia and build your shitty podjezds
your flag is russian
