The substantial police presence at anti-lockdown protests in Estonia recently was the topic of Sunday s Vikerraadio head-to-head current affairs discussion show Samost ja Sildam . The topic split the titular presenters, with Samost saying that involving the Police and Border Guard Board (PPA) on the scale that had been done was a mistake, while Sildam felt the response had been proportionate.
The crackdown, which saw several people detained at protests on Tallinn s Vabaduse väljak (Freedom Square) exactly a week earlier, on April 11, was widely disseminated through the week, and Anvar Samost said he had expected either a senior police officer or a government minister to publicly admit the error (the interior minister, Kristian Jaani, is himself a former police chief – ed.). Some of the PPA personnel present were armed.
