Baltivists (Baltic activists) are Lithuanian-Americans, Latvian-Americans, Estonian-Americans, and friends who want to ensure the continued freedom of the Baltic countries. We are bipartisan and understand that our strong relationship with members of BOTH major political parties is key to continued independence. In the spirit of being one community, users who knowingly share false information or are disrespectful to other users on Baltivist.com will be removed.
Please join our community and help us keep the Baltics free!
