but all in all, this system really provides good results for example, estonia also has ranked on the first and second place in terms of pisa system. just on the conflict itself, i know you ve been speaking to your counterpart in finland today is there a conversation in the baltic states about what is coming? and are you worried about what an invasion in ukraine might mean for you? we follow these developments, which are a great concern, of course, in our region, because this security is not the only security threat to ukraine, but the whole of europe. and it would create very unstable security situation for the whole region. therefore, of course, we are worried in the region, and we all contribute to the diplomatic efforts to help to avoid this escalation that we re talking about, unfortunately. and just a final quick word
