According to the family, the 42-year-old man, identified as Aleksandrs Vabiks, became aggressive after overhearing Olena Dudnik speaking Ukrainian with her husband.
Okay, so an actual deranged Latvian this time, which is pretty rare.
Vabiks has a history of aggressive behavior toward Ukrainian speakers. He has posted photos wearing a T-shirt reading “Russia in my heart” and a matryoshka tattoo on his arm.
He studied at the London College of Computing and Management Sciences and Canterbury Christ Church University and has reportedly worked as a cook.
Great, just another idiot who loves Russia but chooses to live in the west.
Every. Damn. Time.

And he actually has to know Russian, it’s not trivial to differentiate Russian and Ukrainian if you don’t know either language
Most Latvians could tell Russian and Ukrainian apart, having lived around Russians for years.
Thus “know Russian”
Like I can tell apart all of the Nordic/Scandinavian languages pretty easily
