Latvia, the apartheid state where ethnic russians have “non citizen passports” and are treated like second class, has just adopted a law allowing anyone who supports Russia and has dual citizenship with another country to be stripped of their latvian citizenship and thus deported if they live in Latvia. Yes the law says “support for war crimes”, but Latvia has already said that supporting Russia equals “supporting war crimes”. Nazism is returning comrades.

    Isn’t denying or revoking citizenship based on ethnicity against international law?

      Technically its not based on ethnicity, since its because you support Russia. But theyll 100% target ethnic russians, who are already official second class citizens. International law never applies to the west.

        This ☝️
        International laws are always used effectively against countries that West does not see as their part. Like Russia, China, India, Brazil and all other countries except USA and EU. I remember one time NATO directly saying they never commits “war crimes” or along those lines after killing civilians in Libyan War. So they are literally immune to International laws or Human Rights or whatever you call them.

          The UN, the institution that is supposed to enforce international law, is literally a western institution controlled by the west. They are literally policing themselves.

      Only if those people do not have secondary citizenship and doing so would make them stateless. If they had dual citizenship with another nation, it is within the bounds of law.
