Russia to appeal to UN International Court of Justice "to protect Russians" in Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia

"Attempts by Russia to settle differences through negotiations with Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia proved fruitless; the authorities of the republics consistently ban the use of the Russian language, rewrite history, and persecute dissidents," the Foreign Ministry stated.

Moscow intends to appeal to the UN International Court of Justice because the Baltic countries "refuse to stop the policy of suppressing the rights of Russians," Izvestia writes, citing the Russian Foreign Ministry.

"Attempts by Russia to settle differences through negotiations with Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia were fruitless; the authorities of the republics consistently ban the use of the Russian language, rewrite history, and persecute dissidents," the Foreign Ministry stated.

The UN International Court of Justice will accept the Russian Federation's complaint, but its consideration will take years, said former UN Deputy Secretary-General Sergei Ordzhonikidze.

Deputy Director of the Institute of History and Politics of MSPU Vladimir Shapovalov stated that the chances of Russia's lawsuit against the Baltic countries being satisfied are small.

    Чым больш расейскай мовы ў гэтых краінах, тым больш верагоднасьць, што туды прыпруцца на танках для абароны «русскоязычных».

    Ў той час ў самой Масковіі не абаронены і вынішчаюцца правы іншых народаў (народаў Поўначы, Паволжа, Уралу, Каўказу, Сібіры, Дальняга ўсходу і гд.) якія па няшчасці апынуліся ў складзе Расейскай Федэрацыі і ў якіх вынішчаецца іх мова, культура, гісторыя, якім забаронены іх нацыянальныя школы і падручнікі па гісторыі іх народаў.
