Be carefully with the word "citizen" when you talk about Latvia. It's not so easy. I think the number 60 is not correct. About a half of Riga's population is Russians and Russian-speakers. Many of them are gone to Latvia (especially to Riga) in Soviet times when the main part of Latvian official papers was written in Russian and only their children learn Latvian language in schools. Now, the official papers are written in Latvian language. This one is not going to be native for Russian-speakers but is not meaning they don't use that.Originally Posted by drew881
In another hand, many of Russians live in Latvia very long time and share historical roots with Germans and Swedes. Actually, it is a very interesting part of history but it's long story. If somebody wants we can discuss it in Political forum.
It's pity, but German language is no more popular in Latvia. "Other languages" is still popular at the East (a few people knows about Latgalian language).Originally Posted by drew881
