For lasting peace in Europe, we need accountability. Without this, Russia’s cycle of violence will never stop.
Taking responsibility is the basis for a society to have a future. It's the basis for breaking the cycle of aggression. 4/

However, it’s not only battlefield success that will decide the outcome of the war.
We must show the Kremlin it cannot outlast Ukraine and the free world economically.
So, Ukraine’s victory also depends on our ability to dry up the Kremlin’s income to finance aggression. 3/

Longer answer: for victory there are conditions and policies we need to pursue.
To begin with, as President @ZelenskyyUa says, freedom must be armed better than tyranny.
Arms, ammunition, training – they all must continue at a scale sufficient for Ukraine to win the war. 2/

🧵 In my keynote at #CSD2023 on Ukraine’s Path to Victory, I asked: how to end this war?
My answer in short: the faster Putin understands he has made a mistake, he will not reach his objectives and won’t be able to break Ukrainians, the sooner this war ends. 1/

By working together, we can develop a private equity and venture capital ecosystem which is both sizeable and agile, and thus attractive to large investors in third markets.
Instead of competing, we can build a new Silicon Valley – let’s call it the New Nordic Tech Valley. 4/

In the startup and tech ecosystem, there is global competition. Individually we are all too small to go it alone, but the Nordic-Baltic region together has a population of 33 million and generates around 2% of global GDP. 3/

Estonia has come a very long way after we emerged from the totalitarian prison 31 years ago.
In this process, we have received a lot of help from our friends. Denmark and other Nordic countries were a great example for us in building up our country and economy. 2/

I emphasised at the Estonian-Danish business seminar that Estonia is an open, resilient and dynamic business environment with a strong startup culture.
Our flagship companies are our unicorns. We have 10 unicorns and the highest number of start-ups per capita in Europe. 1/

In my interview to @lemondefr I emphasised that the war in #Ukraine will end when #Russia understands that it was a mistake, that Russia cannot win this war. Until then we have to keep on supporting Ukraine.

@LiinaLuup @kaimarkaru Jaanipäevaks tahame tehtud saada, sest seaduses paragrahv, mis ütleb, et maksuseadused peaksid vastuvõetud olema 6 kuud enne jõustumist. Muidu ei saa tuludega arvestada 2024.a eelarves.

My message at #LennartMeriConference opening panel:
There is no stable peace without accountability. We must break the cycle of aggression.
Russian leaders have seen that no Russian leader has been held accountable for attacking other countries. We cannot let this happen again.
