twenty years, the Latvian policy has addressed the question of who speaks when and where the language. It was only after the election last October, from which the party emerged as the Russian legislation in harmony center as the second strongest group discussed was how to deal with Russian-born members was not the committee meetings may follow, although the decision of who represents the people, should be left in a democracy the people. After all, it was stated correctly that no member could be forced to hold a speech in Parliament.
In the early 90s, Latvia had fallen in the Western media concerning alleged discrimination against Russians in the headlines. TV crews followed language inspectors at the Riga Central Market who tested there with the market women, whether they can handle in Latvian a purchase. In the absence of language skills in a penalty was due. It is also twenty years later, no difficulty in this place on the Latvian not huge sellers join.
same time, a visible all manufacturing has been slowly, which can suddenly appear, the language question in a different light. While the Latvian youth before playing in the yard often in preschool Russian learned it as late as a second language dominated and that as a lingua franca of the Soviet Union was also necessary in many places, Russian is now a compulsory subject more in schools, while the Russian students obtained thanks to the hotly debated 2004 amendment to the Education Act, up to 60% of classes in Latvian language.
The proportions have reversed. Earlier Latvia was in fact every Russian, while many immigrants are not native to the Latvian sheared. Today, this is the state language, without the professional market as more women to be difficult. Thus, many young Latvians speak Russian, while the Latvian among their Russian peers are getting better.
The consequences on the labor market. Rare that no case of a vacancy knowledge of Russian is required. The official state language may be Latvian, but in business it is, of course, come to the customer counter. The members of the nationalist group "All for Latvia!" / Applied for Fatherland and Freedom now is to protect a draft law, the Latvian young people without knowledge of Russian language against discrimination in the labor market. The nationalists argue that even now are in many state enterprises Russian skills prerequisite for any job. give such a discrimination against their own nation, in any other European country. The party demands that it should be required foreign language skills especially in a non-official language of the EU only if they are indispensable for the activity.
The long-time Transport Minister Ainārs Šlesers reported in the plenary of an anecdote. With an Estonian guest at a Russian restaurant parlierend have a young Latvian girls do take the order on English because they did not understand any Russian. Since then, he had not seen her there. In the hotel industry it is necessary to find at least still Latvian and Russian to English, and any other language, the increasing competitiveness in the labor market. The draft law of the nationalists he described as revenge against the dominant during the Soviet era, Russian language. An order of the government, which allows the demand for Russian only for jobs with customer contact, he considered unworkable in the real life, because the employer would find another reason to hire the candidate with Russian expertise.
Although the nationalists in Parliament only eight of one hundred seats have agreed to their request at least 34 MPs, while 22 abstained and 32 voted in the negative. The nationalists were
