identities to each in their area of identity threatens the likelihood of the democratic discourse and common action in a single society.” (End of quote) So, we conclude that the right of persons, belonging to minorities, to maintain their identity, which the OSCE recognised as unquestionable, is viewed by the State of Latvia as a threat to an ultimately single integrated society. Therefore, the attack on the education rights of Russianspeakers in Latvia limits their rights to preserve and develop their identity, puts it under threat and pushes Russian-speakers into assimilation. That is OUTRAGEOUS! We protest. 5 (5)
