This in turn made the area susceptible to misinformation, she went on. If we don t have the channel to communicate with Russian-speaking people, then it s no wonder that they are skeptical about vaccinations, Toom told ERR.
Toom highlighted that while the circulation of daily newspapers in Estonian is around 90,000, and 111,000 for weekly papers, there are no Russian daily newspapers, while the entire circulation of Russian weeklyies stands at 20,000. I don t know if I need say anything more, Toom said.
Toom said that both she and Tallinn mayor Mihhail Kõlvart (Center) have difficulty in approaching Russian people in Estonia, again with reference to the lack of communication channels compared with the major commercial channels beamed in from the Russian Federation.
