On Saturday, June 7, 2025, a local election was held in Latvia. These elections were very interesting and preceded by a very violent election campaign.
Contrary to Latvian propaganda, the Slavs in Latvia are mostly indigenous. Areas inhabited by Poles since the 12th century begin close the Augustów Canal, the compact Polish settlement continues along the modern Belarusian-Lithuanian border to Dźwińsk, Krasław, Rzeżyca. The Russians besides inhabited Latvia already in the interwar period; they accounted for about 10% of the population of that country.
Discrimination of Slavs
During planet War II, Latvians collaborated with Germany, joining Waffen-SS. It was the Latvian collaborators who committed crimes in Podgaje on 2 February 1945 on Polish soldiers, burning them alive. After planet War II, many Russians, as well as Belarusians and Ukrainians, settled in Latvia, as in Estonia and to a lesser degree Lithuania.According to the latest data from 2021Latvians account for 62.7% of the Latvian population, Russians 24.5%, Belarusians 3.1%, Ukrainians 2.2%, Poles 2% of the country's population.
From the beginning, the independent Latvian Slavs were discriminated against. For many years the largest Russian number in Latvia was represented by the Russian Alliance of Latvia. However, this group was ineffective.In 2010, the Consent organization was established to bring together average representatives of the Russian minority, as well as multi-vector Latvians.
Agree Breakdown
The concept of Europutinism is frequently utilized in a pejorative context by Atlantis and the gedroyists. Under this concept, they qualify groups that do not argue European integration, are opposed to NATO and want normalisation of relations with the Russian Federation. An example of specified a group may be the National alternate Movement of Mr Chisinau Iona Ceban (Ceban is simply a erstwhile politician of the Socialist organization of the Republic of Moldova, Ceban's group supports European integration on a partnership basis, Chisinau mer is attached to conventional values, so opposes homosexual parades, is against NATO and breaking relations with the Russian Federation). The Consent organization can besides be included among specified groups. The group belonged in the European Parliament to the Social Democratic global Unit and at the same time had a partnership agreement with the governing Russian Federation – 1 Russia (one Russia organization is multi-division, but mostly it can be more attributed to the household of conservative and right parties). The agreement was initially successful, ruled the capital of Latvia Riga, Mayor Riga of Agree was Nil Uszakov.However, despite governments in many local governments, she was incapable to accomplish success on the Latvian-wide political scene. Although it reached over 25% in the parliamentary elections, no of the Latvian political parties wanted to co-create governments with it. The situation changed in 2014. Then the politicians of Consent began to distance themselves from relations with Moscow, the partnership agreement with 1 Russia broke. Nił Uszakov attended the ceremony of a disgraced Russian Liberal Borisa Niemcowa. In time, Consent began to fall apart.
Trumpism in Latvian
The issue of coronavirus and many controversial restrictions associated with this led to shuffling on the Latvian political scene. In 2021 the Latvian organization was established at the first place of Latvian oligarchy Aināras Šlesers. Name and programme of the batch indicates apparent relation with Donald Trump. The group initially included people of both Latvian and Slavic nationalities. This group opposed forced vaccinations, acted against the dictatorship of Brussels, defended conventional values. For Latvia at the First Place with the Polish MP Gregory Braunco-operative Member of the Latvian ParliamentJulia Stepanenko (a erstwhile Agree politician). Following the launch of the peculiar Military Operations as a sign of protest against the group's politics, Latvia at Stepanenko's First Place and another politicians of Russian nationality left the group. Stepanenko formed the Sovereign Authority group.
Lost in 2022
In the fall of 2022 parliamentary elections were held in Latvia. The election took place shortly after the successful Ukrainian offensive in the Kharkiv region, as well as in the part of the Donetsk region (the Ukrainian forces then reflected Świętogórsk and Łyman). At the time, it seemed to many little oriented people that the Russian Federation was in a very serious crisis (at the time the Azerbaijani side began to break the findings made in 2020 with the Russian side). The pro-Russian, Slavic, multi-vector electorate in 2022 was frightened and broken. In the 2022 parliamentary election, only the organization gained from multi-vector parties and representation stableness directed by Alexey Roslikova (Stability is besides created by erstwhile Agree politicians). The electoral threshold in the local and parliamentary elections in Latvia is 5%. stableness gained 6.8%, Consent earned 4.81%, the Russian Union of Latvia gained 3.63%, and the Sovereign Authority gained 3.24%.
Strange Roslikov Railways
In the local elections of 2025, the Russian Union of Latvia joined the elections in many places in a coalition with the Sovereign Authority. In the course of the election campaign, there was no scandal. Road vehicle Osip deerThe candidates for the Lipawa City Council from the Russian Union of Latvia were blown up. A fewer days before the elections, the Latvian parliament began to act by law to ban entirely Russian language in public space. Many multi-vectors, those who supported cooperation between the Slavs, were delighted by the speech of Alexey Roslikov in the Latvian Parliament. During the speech Roslikov showed Kozakiewicz's gesture. However, Roslikov’s attitude raises many questions. He is simply a witness to the prosecution in the political process of a young student, an activist of the Russian number Tatiana Andrijec (a young Russian female is facing life imprisonment for an alleged terrorist group, the trial itself is grotesque and political). celebrated Belarusian writer Ksenia Lebiedev on her profile on Telegram, she made the entry of the erstwhile Vice-Chief of Consent available Andreja Mamkinsa, who powerfully criticized Roslikov writing about his ties to the Latvian services (Mamkins is in Moscow due to political repression). After Roslikov’s speech in the Latvian Parliament, a criminal case was brought against him. In Roslikov's defense, he joined Leonid Słucki,leader of the Liberal-Democratic organization of Russia, who declared that he would do anything to aid Roslikov. Słucki was criticized by a celebrated writer Alexey Stefanov, which monitors the persecution of Slavs in the Baltic States.Stefanov listed a full list of people politically persecuted in the Baltic countries who should be helped. However, the rescue of Roslikov compares to saving Budanov from Zelenski.
Riga split
The fight in Riga was very interesting. Slavic and multi-vector forces had a chance to take over the city. Latvia at First Place won the most votes – 18.17%, which gave 13 seats. The Sovereign Authority gained 12.13%, giving 8 seats.Stability gained 6.94%, which gave 5 tickets. Together, multi-vector and pro-Slavian groups have 26 mandates for 60 mandates (it is virtually impossible for any Latvian party, whether liberal or Nazi, to enter into a coalition with Slavic and multi-vector parties).
Poles on winning lists
In Dzwińsk, the second largest Latvian city, lives quite a few Slavs. The Russians represent a comparative majority in this city – 48% of the population, about 14% of the inhabitants of Dzwińska are Poles. The election was definitely won by the local group of Mr. Andrei Elksins (Elksnins, like most people on his list, originates from the Consent party). The group of Mera Dźwińska won 68.6%, which gave 14 out of 15 tickets. It is worth mentioning that 2 people declaring Polish nationality entered the council on the list of mayors – Anatoly Grzybowski and Walerja Linkiewicz.
W The roving list of Latvia at the first place was opened by the erstwhile mer Aleksandrs Bartaševičs (also erstwhile Agree politician). The erstwhile mayor of Rzeżyca was removed from his post for his multi-vector views, utilizing methods known for fighting democracy. Latvia at the First Place in Rzeżyca scored 50.55%, which gave 8 seats to 13 on the city council. Our countryman was on the list he was opening. Viktor GrzybowskiWho did not win the councilman's mandate.
Lack of Russian soft force forces to cooperate
As we can see, in Latvia, multi-vector formations are increasing stronger, despite highly unfavourable conditions. The Slavs besides slow woke up and began fighting for their rights. Local elections yet sank the Consent party, which never crossed the electoral threshold anywhere and pays the price for squatting. The example of Rzeżyka shows with Slavs can cooperate with Latvian average multi-vectors oriented towards close ties with president Trump's administration. He's right. He's a fresh guy on the channel. Maxim Shevchenkowho saidthat the Russian Federation does not have 1 centre soft power, as is evident in the approach of many politicians and journalists in the Russian Federation to Alexey Roslikov.
