Responses to Russia's escalation through mobilization, nuclear threats and fraudulent referenda to annex Ukraine's occupied territory must be united and severe and aimed at ensuring victory for Ukraine and regional security in Estonia, Secretary General of the Foreign Ministry Jonatan Vseviov says
The political decision, taken in response to the invasion of Ukraine, falls short of the outright visa ban advocated by countries neighboring Russia and receiving visitors by land.
Estonia, a former Soviet republic, has already started to ban Russian tourists, and it's pushing for the European Union to prevent millions of them from vacationing inside the bloc while their country wages war in Ukraine.
