A Latvian lawmaker, Aleksey Roslikov, was expelled from parliament after a bold pro-Russia statement. The incident occurred during a session focused on combating Russification in Latvia. Roslikov spoke mostly in Latvian but ended his speech with a phrase in Russian, declaring, “There are more of us and Russian is our language.” His remarks sparked outrage among lawmakers. The Saeima swiftly voted to expel him from the session. Moscow praised Roslikov for defending the Russian language, sharing the video and condemning Latvia’s alleged Russophobic policies.
