"Bring home your Russian-speaking ambassador, who does not respect our country, people, language and culture, talking to us in the language of a terrorist state."
As a result, the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Latvia, Baibe Braje, addressed the foreign diplomats accredited in Latvia with the maxim that the official language of Latvia is Latvian. The US Embassy has not yet responded to limitrof's remark.
