This Friday, May 13, the Police and Border Guard Board (PPA) is drawing the implementation of the mass immigration emergency response plan to a close, following which the Social Insurance Board (SKA) will take back over the leading role in accepting and providing aid to incoming war refugees in Estonia.
Vaiko Vaher, head of the strategic headquarters of the Police and Border Guard Board (PPA), said that May 9 celebrations at the military cemetery on Tallinn's Filtri tee and elsewhere in Estonia have been largely peaceful. The police have 600 additional officers on duty to help ensure public order.

While individuals publicly displaying in Estonia symbols glorifying Russia's invasion of Ukraine have so far been cautioned, the nearer we get to May 9 - "Victory Day" in Russia – the more robustly the Police and Border Guard Board (PPA) will be empowered to intervene, the authorities chief, Elmar Vaher, says.
