Terrorist state Russia has now turned water into a weapon. Destroying #NovaKakhovka dam is a war crime affecting countless civilians and bringing ecocide and mass destruction.
We must stop this cycle of aggression by helping Ukraine to victory and delivering full accountability.

We signed MoU between Enterprise #Estonia and Enterprise #Singapore.
We share a common vision for a thriving business environment and a vibrant startup culture, with real thinkers, developers, and solution providers.
Let's build on that and make our cooperation even stronger.

Thank you for the good discussion, Deputy Prime Minister @LawrenceWongST and IT minister @joteo_ylm.

I also hope to welcome you both in Tallinn.

One vital precondition for creating a personalized state is also trust and this trust comes by state guaranteed digital identity.
We could solve many problems we have online when people would be identified like in the real world. 4/

We must also focus on trusted connectivity and on resilience, including cybersecurity.
This includes developing physical infrastructure but also capacity building to ensure knowledge and skills needed to navigate cyberspace.
Adding security is not an option, it’s a must. 3/

This is behind the idea of the personalized state – a vision that my government has put in focus.
This means taking the tools of the internet economy – such as data, personalization, design and automation – and based on that reimagining how government provides public goods. 2/

Highlighted in my speech @AsiaTechxSG that Estonia’s vision is resilient, responsive and open governance.
It’s not enough for the state to get online. Once online, the state needs to constantly adapt to keep up with the people. 1/

Happy National Day and Swedish Flag Day to @SwedishPM and the people of #Sweden.
We are close friends with a strong bond. We have great defence cooperation that will continue hopefully very soon in NATO. Together we will strengthen our region’s security. #StrongerTogether

Had a good meeting with President of Singapore Halimah Yacob.
#Estonia and #Singapore are small, innovative, digital nations, leading in e-governance and education.
Today I opened our embassy here. This signifies our close relations and commitment to tighten them further.

I'm glad to open our embassy and business hub @EstoniainSG with Deputy PM @LawrenceWongST in Singapore.
It is an important milestone in our relations.
It's a piece of #Estonia in #Singapore. The space combines the best of Estonian design, nature and innovation.
Come visit us!

RT @joerglau: Estonian PM @kajakallas making an excellent case at #SLD23 that Russia‘s aggression in Ukraine is a colonial-imperialist venture. #NATO not a tool of hegemony but insurance of small states AGAINST Russian hegemony infringing upon their sovereignty https://t.co/sUlMT0MhqE

Dear Mette @Statsmin and the people of #Denmark, congratulations on #ConstitutionDay.

Newspaper @straits_times writes about my panel at #SLD23.
They picked up the message: it's a Russian lie that Russia’s war of choice against Ukraine has been caused by NATO.
NATO doesn’t exist to threaten Russia: it is for defending its members from it.

Empasised to Defence Minister @Ng_Eng_Hen that we appreciate Singapore’s support towards Ukraine.
Singapore has imposed sanctions and explicitly expressed its condemnation and opposition to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Not because it is Russia, but because it is clearly wrong.
RT @Ng_Eng_Hen: Met with Estonia Prime Minister @kajakallas just before the 7th plenary where I will be speaking. 🇸🇬🇪🇪#SLD23 https://t.co/AbflAXDvPg

RT @holmescnn: Russia's neighbors still fear Putin's ultimate goals. Estonian Prime Minister @kajakallas: "Russia has not changed its goal...they are the last imperial, colonialist power in the world...if they succeed in Ukraine, then no country neighboring Russia can be safe" #UkraineRussiaWar https://t.co/0roLQTjH7T

Told @CNN after #SLD23 that Russian invasion of Ukraine is a continuation of colonialist land grab policy.
In Russia’s vision for security it's acceptable to conquer another country.
It’s a matter of global security not to let this vision succeed.

Enjoyed being on the panel together at the @IISS_org #SLD23 and sit down with the German Defence Minister @PistoriusBoris in Singapore today.
We discussed the German initiative on the European Sky Shield and expectations for the upcoming NATO Vilnius summit.

I am encouraged by the support of Indo Pacific countries to international law and the UN Charter.
Our host #Singapore has explicitly expressed its condemnation and opposition to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. I thank Singapore for this principled position. 6/
