@Nisse_Hult I can't speak for every young Latvian, but there has been a shift of perspective towards the Russians living here. (I can't say that goes for our government, though.) The Russians here, in my opinion, aren't bad people, they aren't the Soviets, and some of them just have different ideologies than most ethnic Latvians. It's more of our parents and grandparents that still hold a resentment because they were the people who witnessed and were affected by the events that the Soviets caused.
