Tsikhanouskaya's grim warning: Russia might attack the Baltic States from Belarus

Wow. And other people have no right to independence, right? Croatia btw has never been part of Serbia, but part of Yugoslavia. The same goes for Bosnia. It was part of Yugoslavia, not Serbia. Yugoslavia does not exist anymore. And if you go back to the Middle Ages Bosnia was split between Serbia and Croatia in the early days, with Croatia being the suzerain of most of the territory, but later Hungary seized control of Bosnia, but when Hungarian control weakened in the 1100s, the Bans of Bosnia started to act independently, becoming a independent kingdom (there was some funny things going on with both the Western and Eastern church that made the Bosnian church independent of both, but that's a sidenote). Then the Ottomans swallowed Bosnia, then it was a Habsburg possession, and then it was part of Yugoslavia. Tell me again how it's Serbian clay.

Regarding the Baltic States, they were a part of the Russian Empire, true. But they became independent when the Russian Empire collapsed in 1917. Then they were occupied and forcedly annexed into the USSR during World War 2, but note they were annexed as SSRs. That means they were not part of the Russian SSR, and thus not part of Russia. So the Baltic States has not been Russian territory since 1917. They have been Soviet terrirtory (as in illegally occupied by the USSR), but the USSR was not Russia, and the USSR does not exist anymore.
Irredentists are such crazy people.

I think you're holding the bar a little too high, here.
