A salute to Saakashvili & Baltics

Hatred, Nazism and Sovietism are clearly evident on the Estonian and Latvian sides as previously detailed.

Only a simpleton can believe that Russia's economy is mainly oil driven and no Lembitu, no Balt has ever come close to kicking my ass.

Previous examples of discrimination have been given. You don't regard those acts as discriminatory.

Second, the Polish-Lithuanian Union's "Rus"-sian territories were amassed because of the devastation of the Mongol-Tartar invasion, a monumental catastrophe that exposed all unconquered lands to land-grabs from the West. And the Poles-Lithuanians made deals with the Mongol-Tartars as well...

Deals with the Mongol-Tartars were made by the Halychan [West Rus] princes in the first place and not by the Polish Kings in the XIII-th century. Please mind the raid of the Rus (Halych) Prince Leo (reputed as founder of Lwow) who burst deep into Poland with Berke-khan troops making terrible killing and destruction spree in 1259.
The deadly coalition reached even Silesia!
It was terrible time and Poland had no deals but strenghtening in mind. Hence, the idea of union with Lithuania. Conclusons of Pankratov are misguiding and simply untrue.
On the other hand, Pankratov is right when he states that there were warmer periods in Poland-Rus relations. In fact, until the Mongol disaster came in 1240, Polish relations with Rus were better and richer than with Lithuania.

Then give me link. You have only told things with no proof. As easily can I tell that Russia is only left nazist country in te world. Or that people in Russia live in tents because they dont know how to build houses. And dont put here links about your goverment controlled sites and newspapers.

Ok. I will tell latvians these words if I visit Latvia next time. Although I dont understand your opinion that they are not brave people. But anyhow this is your opinion and be happy with it.

At least I can tell that in 1918 they were the hardest opponents for Estonian troops. They were the only units wich had discipline and morale for fighting. But anyway Estonian forces beated red army back to russia with Red Latvian units.
