Publicist Lato Lapso expressed his criticism on social networks, comparing what is happening in Latvia with Russia.
“How is this different from the “wrong” flower bearers in the “wrong” places with arrests and criminal prosecution in Russia? Right. Nothing,” he wrote in his microblog “X”.
A little later, he recorded a 9-minute video in which he compared what was happening in the country with events in the USSR.
“At what point did the restored Latvian Republic and its administration turn into a pathetic parody of the Soviet occupation power? The answer is simple. Considering that lustration has never taken place in Latvia, hundreds and thousands of collaborators of the occupying power, their family members, their children, who were raised in the same communist and totalitarian spirit, flocked to various Latvian structures, they act according to the same good old Communist Party manuals . We all know how the USSR ended. The current management of the Republic of Latvia, which thinks that it is necessary to fight people who lay flowers in the wrong places, in the wrong opinion, this management of the Latvian SSR 2.0, continuing in the same spirit, will end faster than it thinks,” he said.
According to him, it may happen that new people will come and begin to prosecute current legislators under exactly the same “cretinous” articles that the latter adopted to protect themselves.
“Mark my words, it will be so. All the best,” he concluded.
As reported, the police began a criminal trial once morest a man who three times brought flowers to the site of the demolished Alyosha monument. The person faces up to 5 years in prison.
