Clyde Kull, the Estonian ambassador in Paris, has been summarily recalled from his duties; the Estonian Prosecutor’s Office said that it has launched criminal proceedings against the former ambassador.
The decree to call the ambassador back was signed by the Estonian president, Kersti Kaljulaid, on 20 May. In addition to France, Kull was representing Estonia as an ambassador also in Monaco, Tunisia and at the Paris-based OECD and UNESCO.
The Estonian foreign ministry confirmed the recall of Kull from his duties in Paris, but declined to give further comments at this stage, citing a criminal investigation by the country’s prosecuting service.
