A New Cold War?

[Lembitu]

Hi Natash!

I dont have anything against russian culture. But please note that there are more cultures, not only russian one.
And here is the point - few russians who live here are trying to change our culture to russian one. I dont like it a bit. This is our homeland and place for ESTONIAN culture.
I reccomend you to study Estonian history littlebit and you will understand why our people are very suspicious against our eastern neigbour.
Im very happy about their culture until it stays on Russia.

Lembitu:

How similar or what kind of comparisons would you make regarding:

Lithuania & Estonia?

P.S. I was engaged to marry a man from Lithuania once...

[Lembitu]

I will not speculate in things wich Im not sure so I cannot answer your question. I have been in Lithaunia only few times and dont have any friends there. Why do you ask anyway?

Lemmy:

Just curious if you could teach me about [the] other cultures [in the world] you were referring to in our prior written conversations....

Yes I can talk a lot about Estonian culture and the russian one.
We were forced to learn russian language and culture since 1st grade. As a fact we had more russian lessons in the week then our native language lessons.
So if you are interested then let me know. If you want you can visit Estonia and I can be your humble guide around our little country wich still speaks Estonian after 50 year USSR occupation.

Lemmy:

Thank you for the invitation. One thing I appreciate about russia & former republics of the U.S.S.R is that an "invite" is an "invite..." and not just an empty promise.

I'm not sure I'll ever make it to Estonia, but it's nice to know you would escort me around....

It's very simple: Saudi Arabia is no democracy but it does not have nuclear weapons like Russia. Russia retains the USSR’s superpower-empire ambitions. Many in the RF don’t want to accept the fact; former republics are no longer in the USSSR and can not be controlled from Moscow.
