R to @kajakallas: As we don’t have a crystal ball to predict the future, we have to learn from history.
First, if you look away, eventually it will cost more.
Second, if aggression pays off somewhere, it's an invitation to use it elsewhere. 3/

R to @kajakallas: To stop the historic cycle of Russian aggression we also need accountability.
The leaders of Russia must be held accountable and for that we need a special tribunal for the crime of aggression. 2/

Good conversation with

https://nitter.privacydev.net/libe
on the security of Europe at
https://nitter.privacydev.net/SorbonneParis1
.
There’s a war on European soil. Our aim must be Ukraine’s victory.
If we don’t set victory as a goal, if we hold back, then it is also unclear what actions and policies should follow. 1/

R to @kajakallas: The road ahead won’t be easy, but failure isn’t an option.
Let’s rise to the challenges, safeguarding our European project for future generations.
Let's make sure the EU doesn't speak only to the head but also to the heart.
Our choices today shape the Europe of tomorrow. 7/

R to @kajakallas: With Russia's war against Ukraine, the security environment in Europe has changed, demanding strategic action.
We need higher defence spending, a robust industrial base, and a reinvigorated EU defence budget.
Together with NATO, we must strengthen our collective security. 6/
[2024-05-03 13:54 UTC]
R to @kajakallas: We must understand the threat to make the efforts proportionate to the danger.
We should listen to @EmmanuelMacron’s warning that our Europe is mortal and whether it dies depends only on our own choices. Europe’s existential interests are at stake – so Europe must do more. 5/
[2024-05-03 13:54 UTC]
R to @kajakallas: History is calling on us to make bold decisions.
Russia is holding every single person in Ukraine at gunpoint – every day and every night.
This could someday be the fate of the rest of Europe. Or it could not, if we choose to act and avoid it. 4/
[2024-05-03 13:54 UTC]
R to @kajakallas: Enlargement is a political decision first and foremost.
It is about whether Europe is serious about being a geopolitical actor and whether Europe can deliver on its promises.
When countries have done their homework, they also deserve to progress on their path to the EU. 3/
[2024-05-03 13:54 UTC]
R to @kajakallas: 20 years ago, Estonia joined the EU and also NATO.
Joining the EU wasn’t just about reaping benefits, but also sharing responsibilities.
Estonia’s prosperity and security is testament to the dividends of enlargement. 2/

Honoured to speak at
https://nitter.privacydev.net/robert_schuman
foundation event at

I emphasised Europe is an unfinished project: as long as there are nations sharing our heritage, believing in rule of law and democracy, wanting to be part of our union, and as long as grey zones exist. 1/

The security reality demands Europe to be bold and creative.
That’s why my government has decided to create a new defence investment fund to accelerate the development of the defence industry in Estonia.
Hope our example also inspires others.

RT by @kajakallas: If, for some reason, you don’t want to listen to 🇪🇪 Prime Minister, then listen to 🇫🇷 President.
Their message is the same - Europe’s existential interests are at stake. Thus - Europe must do more.

20 years ago today,
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23Estonia
joined the EU.
We knew we did not join a ready-made organisation – the
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23EU
is constantly developing and we've gladly helped shape it.
Our accession has been a success story. It now allows us to help others, including
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23Ukraine
, on their way to join.
[2024-05-01 07:07 UTC]
Emphasised to
https://nitter.privacydev.net/Telegraph
that every arms package sent to Ukraine is highly welcome.
It should also inspire others to deliver to Ukraine what it urgently needs.
We should not forget we have the resources and expertise – our strength outweighs Russia’s.
