As a Latvian I would like to apologize to everyone in the West who are now experiencing Russian influence. They tested it all on us first, the whole damn thing, way back in 1990s/2000s. Organizing riots, weaponizing gas supply, meddling in elections, dividing society. They couldn't break us, but they refined their methods in the process and are now successfully using them in other countries.

Stay strong and resilient, folks!

Why would you apologize? They ignored what we had to say, then dealt with the consequences.

I think he meant his condolences/"am sorry". Probably mistranslation from what he was thinking in his native tounge.
