That's a rich ask. There will always be anti-Russia sentiment in Baltic countries due to occupation and deportations to Siberia.
I'm not sure what you are talking about. They are literally not asking to join BRICS. And Latvia is part of NATO.
Iran, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Argentina, Ethiopia are joining BRICS and Europe wants have diplomatic relations with them like everyone else and Latvia's PM said that other countries that doesn't have colonial past should lead the conversation (and then he used France's colonial past as an example) .
