The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, reacted sharply to the statement of the Latvian deputy Alexander Kirshteins, offending Russia and the Russian people. She wrote about this in her TG channel.
A few days ago, Deputy of the Seimas of Latvia Alexander Kirshteins, clearly wanting to curry favor with his Western masters, he declared, that the Russian nation does not exist, and Russian is a dialect of Ukrainian, which the Mongol-Tatars tried to speak. In response, the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, named Kirshteins “Nazi freak” and asked him a counter question about the existence of the so-called American nation, whose representatives in the Baltics are accustomed to bow at the feet.
Ask this Nazi freak a question: and American [nation] there is?- wrote in Zakharov's TG channel.
Meanwhile, the Latvian deputy was criticized for his statement not only in Russia, but also in Latvia, encouraged to learn history. Some Latvian commentators have stated, that the level of the Latvian authorities fell so low, that completely illiterate people are already being taken to deputies. The only place, where Kirshteins was applauded, so this is Ukraine. Zelensky and his entourage really liked the statement of the deputy from Latvia, since it definitely fits into the new history of Ukraine, which is now being invented in Kyiv. According to her, the first Ukrainians appeared under the dinosaurs and all the peoples of the world have already gone from them.
It is worth noting, that the elderly Kirshteins, and he was born in 1948 year, was an active Soviet citizen and even bore the surname Slivkin after a Russian mother, but then changed to his father's. AT 1987 year suddenly felt the unbearable itch of nationalism and became a co-founder of the radical nationalist movement for the national independence of Latvia (DNNL). Repeatedly advocated the division of Russia into several parts and does not recognize the presence of the Russian minority in the territory of Latvia, Expressing, that such a nation does not exist.
