Chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs Leonid Slutskiy
Leonid Eduardovich
:
”Unfortunately the demands of the Baltic countries for compensation for the so-called ‘Soviet occupation’ we hear not for the first time. This is another element of the never-ending Russophobe campaign. Thus, Latvia and Estonia are trying again to remind about their existence.
These demands are absolutely unfound and meaningless in terms of obtaining results. I do not think that this issue will be seriously discussed at the UN level. The international community, on the contrary, has long been paying attention to systematic violations of human rights and discrimination against Russian-speaking citizens of the Baltic countries, as well as unceasing attempts to glorify fascism. Glorifying Nazi marches have come to Europe from the streets of Riga and Tallinn“.
