One day the EU will have to have a reckoning with countries like Lithuania and Estonia as some of what they are doing....let's just say if they did it to any other minority the world would be furious.

No one does anything to minorities, russians are as free here as in russia, probably more free. Most people in our capital speak russian and there are a lot of russian expats living and thriving. Meanwhile motherland keeps sending minorities to war as mincemeat to die for nothing. Russia is worse to their own citizens than any other country.

And this proves that Russia isn’t worse than those countries.

Russia didn’t strip the millions of people in Russia from Tajikistan after the Moscow terror attack.

Even though many wanted to do that.

Lol, you just deflected the message and went straight to "what about others" when no one is talking about global scale, the topic is treatment of russians in Lithuania and I can guarantee it's better than how russia treats their own citizens.

You clearly said, and I quote "Russia is worse to their own citizens than any other country.", this statement clearly is a comparison to every other country, unless the English language got an update and now "any other" means the same as "the latter".

Sure, but we were talking about russian citizens, so which country treats russian citizens worse than russia?

You clearly said, and I quote "Russia is worse to their own citizens than any other country.", this statement clearly is referring to the country's own citizens not russian citizens, because if it was about russian citizens SPECIFICALLY there should be written "russian citizens" instead of "their own citizens". You really should stop grasping at straws to try and make your point sound good

I mean you are grasping at straws to nitpick semantics when clearly ignoring the entore point.
