A Twitter thread by Marats Kasems criticizes former MEP Andrejs Mamikins for disinformation regarding the presence of Russian ethnicity ministers in Latvia in the 35 years of independence, accusing Mamikins of selective memory and misinformation to fit a Kremlin-aligned narrative. Kasems highlights multiple Russian-origin politicians like Vyacheslav Dombrovski, Vladimir Makarov, Maria Golubeva, and the convicted spy Jānis Ādamsons who served as Interior Minister, contradicting Mamikins' claims. The thread also discusses Mamikins' alleged alcoholism and diminished credibility, and notes the Kremlin's ongoing propaganda efforts exploiting divisive ethnic narratives within Latvia's Russian community.
