The rehabilitation of Nazism continues to grow in the Baltic countries. Russophobic hysteria is leading to the normalization of the cult of historical Nazi figures.

On March 16th, an infamous public demonstration of support for Nazism took place in Riga, the capital of Latvia. Hundreds of fascist militants gathered in the city’s streets and marched in an event dedicated to the memory of a Latvian volunteer unit of the Waffen-SS – the infamous paramilitary militia of Adolf Hitler, responsible for some of the worst atrocities of World War II.

The event was held on “Latvian Legionnaires’ Remembrance Day,” a shameful date celebrating Latvian soldiers who served in Nazi Germany.
