On Tuesday, 9 May, a poster showing an image of Vladimir Putin with the caption that he is a war criminal was hung on the wall of a castle in the Estonian city of Narva at the border with Russia.
"This is not a provocation but an installation planned by the museum and the Propastop organisation. The poster will be up for a few days. It unambiguously reminds onlookers that there is a border with Russia here in Narva.
Russian authorities requested a meeting with representatives of the Estonian police to demand that they remove a poster placed on the Narva fortress by the Estonian-Russian border calling the Russian president Vladimir Putin a war criminal, the regional newspaper Põhjarannik writes.
Narva has had to live in a state of constant change, and change isn't always good. Hence also Narva residents' mistrust of new things, of swift decisions and of "strangers." In the meantime, however, a fragile "common" has been sought and also carefully built in Narva as well, Anna Markova writes.
Narva City Council members said their meeting today with Prime Minister Kaja Kallas (Reform) was positive. It will be decided on Wednesday if the council plans to take the government to court over the removal of the T-34 tank monument from the city.
