By helping #Ukraine 🇺🇦 to victory, we protect our existential interest – to live as a united & democratic #Europe, SecGen @vseviov outlined in @tedxtallinn talk.
If aggressor is victorious, it will not stop there. It would lick its wounds & continue.

We will never recognize results of Russia’s null & void „referenda“, illegal annex. of #Ukraine’s territories.
Our support to 🇺🇦 is unwavering. This blatant violation of int. law & pillars of humanity shows true color of Russia.
Russia will be taken accountable for its crimes.
Estonia🇪🇪 will close its borders on the 19th of Sept. to Russian citizens.
It is an important security question for 🇪🇪 and #Schengen area.
Also, it has a moral importance – there’s no place in🇪🇪 and in Europe for those who are justifying Russia’s genocidal war against 🇺🇦.
Today is the 1⃣ day of school in #Estonia.
But this year among these kids are thousands of 🇺🇦 children whose desire for knowledge will not be stopped.
🇪🇪 has made sure that the children who came here to escape the war do not have to pause their #education. @haridusmin
Exactly 6⃣ months ago we woke up ready to celebrate the independence day of 🇪🇪. Instead there was a war in Europe.
Today we woke up more unified, stronger and determined because we are united by a common cause.
🇺🇦 must win!
Happy Independence Day Ukraine!

#Estonia 🇪🇪 is one of the leading countries in #CyberSecurity but how do we ensure our cybersecurity objectives, both domestic & international? 🤔

1⃣ April @MFAestonia & @EFPI_Est will host high-level conference "Working for Peace to Overcome the Scourge of War" in 🇪🇪.
I will be discussing w/ 🇮🇪@simoncoveney, 🇸🇮@AnzeLog, 🇱🇻@edgarsrinkevics & 🇭🇺Péter Szijjártó the influence of small states in times of great-power rivalry.
Bombing #Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Station is completely new level of irresponsible terror. Ramifications of nuclear disaster would be disastrous for everyone☢️. Attacks in that area and in all of 🇺🇦 must be stopped immediately‼️
My message to the Ukrainian people was aired last night on 🇺🇦 national TV. Dear Ukrainian friends! You have hundreds of millions of friends in Europe and we will do everything to help you. Ukraine needs clear EU perspective. #WeStandWithUkraine

Ambassadors of EU Member States in Lisbon gathered this afternoon in the Embassy of Ukraine to support Ambassador Inna Ohnivets and express our solidarity with Ukraine.

Decision to recognise separatist regions of #Ukraine Donbass & Luhansk by 🇷🇺 is unacceptable & is a serious breach of international law & Minsk agreements. 🇪🇪 fully supports sovereignty & territorial integrity of 🇺🇦within its internationally recognised borders. #StandwithUkraine
Estonia will never accept the illegal decision by Russia to recognize Donetsk and Luhansk regions. They are an internationally recognized part of Ukraine, like Crimea. Clearly, Moscow is not serious about diplomacy but is looking for casus belli. #StandWithUkraine
Presented annual address at the foreign policy debate of @Riigikogu today. In light of Russia’s large-scale military build-up on #Ukraine’s borders, #security & #defence are central in our 🇪🇪 foreign policy.
We continue to strongly support 🇺🇦 sovereignty & territorial integrity.
