The presence of @ZelenskaUA today side by side with @vonderleyen is more than a symbol.
It shows: Ukraine now firmly belongs in the EU. Ukraine and Europe are one.
"Ukraine and Europe will prevail." And I add: Russia's war has only fuelled the power of our democracies. 1/4

I am profoundly saddened by the passing of Queen Elizabeth II. Estonia mourns with her people and the @RoyalFamily.
Her sense of service and dedication to public duty were unparalleled. It's the end of an era but her legend will live on and inspire.
Today my government will decide to stop tourism from #Russia to EU over our border. It's a closely coordinated decision with 🇱🇻🇱🇹🇵🇱, in response to serious public security threats.
This is not an outright ban, exceptions will remain.

— Commissioner @YlvaJohansson on the proposal to fully suspend the EU's Visa Facilitation Agreement with Russia.
Greeted the new Latvian Ambassador to Estonia Kristīne Našeniece today.
#Latvia is an excellent friend and neighbour.
We stand firmly together: be it supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression or making our region even more sustainable, smarter and economically thriving.
Honoured to receive International Prize from the Hayek Foundation together with my Latvian and Lithuanian colleagues for defending European democratic values.
Said in my speech that defending European democratic values is as topical today as back when we built up Estonia. 1/8
Before #Hayek Prize award ceremony in Berlin discussed our actions regarding further sanctions on #Russia with @IngridaSimonyte and @krisjaniskarins.
Suspension of visa facilitation agreement with Russia was a necessary step. Need to continue working on EU-wide solution. 1/2
Thank you for your kind words. I was glad to welcome you in Estonia.
RT @MSCheusgen: I expressed my respect for @kajakallas' leadership in response to Putin's war of aggression. She is a role model in the fight against a war criminal responsible for the death of innocent children, women, and men, and in defending our values: freedom, human rights, rule of law.
Thank for you the invitation and good discussion!
RT @AmchamEstonia: Today, over 100 business leaders gathered for the 17th Annual Meeting with the Prime Minister of Estonia Kaja Kallas. The Prime Minister addressed such topics as defense and security, energy crisis, inflation and many others.. we are truly inspired by your leadership @kajakallas
Honoured to be opening speaker for Munich Young Leaders who are in Tallinn for #msc_myl annual meeting.
Thank you for lively discussion on war in Ukraine, sanctions, defence.
I reminded: Russia's interest is to divide us - not only European countries, but also our societies.
Discussed with @NewStatesman's @JeremyCliffe Russia's war in Ukraine, dangers of its imperialist delusion and our continued need for unity and a moral compass to deal with it.
My message: peace can't be an ultimate goal if it means aggression pays off.
September 1 marks the 1st day of school in #Estonia - the anticipated start of new beginnings.
I wish an exciting new year to everyone starting or returning to #school; strength to parents supporting their children, and inspiration to teachers on this journey of #education. 1/2
