Do you think the Russians in Donbass are not aware of all this?
They are well aware what EU is all about, and on what conditions the "second sort Europeans" are invited in.
Aware of "all this"? I don't understand what you are alluding or referring to. You haven't made the context clear, since this thread has nothing to do with Russians in Donbass. Besides, it was nice to receive a positive sentiment from Ruth Kiss Kiss et al.
As to the gist of the video, again ... what is the point?

It was just a question of time until her twitchy fingers demanded to write about 'second-tire-people'. Don't pay too much attention to it.

Anyway, all the best to Latvia!

I am referring to their shortage of jobs, low pay, people forced to immigrate and look for jobs somewhere else, the kind of jobs that the locals don't want to do/don't accept them for the same kind of low pay. With other words I don't see a "happy ending" for Latvians.

No you did not. But that doesn't mean that I can't connect the dots.

The point is, I see the other side of "Latvian independence" or rather dependence on the new masters. And it doesn't look too good, too promising (at least to me.)

Belated congratulations and all the best to Latvia. I once knew (briefly) a professor from Latvia and a very interesting fellow and so nice.

Somehow I don't see Russians in Donbass being the the welthiest people in the world WITHOUT EU either...
