Russen in Letland voelen zich tweederangs burgers door de oorlog

Like Ukraine, the Baltic states belonged to the USSR, but they did become members of NATO and the EU and now watch the Russians rage in Ukraine from a relatively safe position. However, the situation is causing tension, especially in Latvia.

The TV News report Russians in Latvia feel like second-class citizens because of the war (Russen in Letland voelen zich tweederangs burgers door de oorlog) was filmed by the crew lead by Eelco Bosch van Rosenthal for the Nieuwsuur (News Hour), a Dutch current affairs television programme produced for the NPO by the government broadcasters NOS and NTR. The full report is available on the broadcaster’s website.
