RT by @kajakallas: A short break during the EUCO discussions!

🇪🇺 Euro Summit, 22 March 2024

[2024-03-22 12:34 UTC]

At
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23EUCO
, we confirmed that the
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23EU
is firmly committed to helping Ukraine win the war.
Our next strategic goal must be long-term planning and investments in Europe’s defence readiness and defence industry. We must produce more munitions than Russia.

RT by @kajakallas: #EUCO "Le problème avec la défense, c'est que lorsqu'on en a besoin, il est déjà trop tard", dit @kajakallas @lalibrebe."Je ne suis pas attachée mon idée d'euro-obligations. Si vous avez une autre solution, proposez-la. Car nous devons investir maintenant"

My message before
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23EUCO
: we must invest more in Europe’s defence.
14 EU leaders have sent a letter to
https://nitter.privacydev.net/EIB
to open up funds for defence investments.
I’ve also proposed the idea of using eurobonds.
We’re also open to other ideas. But whatever we decide to do, we must do it fast

https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23Estonia
has just announced that we will send
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23Ukraine
artillery ammunition and other military aid worth 20 million euros.
Our goal must be Ukraine's victory.
Estonia is allocating 0.25% of GDP to Ukraine's military aid each year. It's a winning strategy if all join.

Always good to meet with
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23NATO
Secretary General
https://nitter.privacydev.net/jensstoltenberg
.
Discussed support to
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23Ukraine
and the importance of delivering ammunition to Ukraine ASAP.
Allies must invest more in defence. There is no time to spare. Estonia's defence spending is over 3%.

During my recent visit to Washington, the focus was on helping Ukraine win. I met
https://nitter.privacydev.net/POTUS
Biden at the
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23GridironDinner
and spoke to U.S. media.
Here's my interview to
https://nitter.privacydev.net/nationaljournal
. My message: it's cheaper to be on the right side of history now:

RT by @kajakallas: Dear @kajakallas, I greatly appreciate all of your consistent efforts to strengthen not only Ukraine, but also Estonia, other Baltic nations, and all of the democratic world. With friends like you, we have faith in the victory of freedom.

[2024-03-19 20:00 UTC]

Emphasised at a business seminar in
https://nitter.privacydev.net/BotschaftEstBer
that with 20 years in EU and NATO, Estonia is secure.
Our digital infrastructure, stable economy, favourable tax policies and skilled workforce make Estonia an ideal destination for foreign investors.

RT by @kajakallas: The power of freedom is stronger than the power of fear. Yet we must never take our #freedom in #Europe for granted. It takes courage & determination to protect it, as embodied by @kajakallas. Counting you among Europe’s strong leaders is a gift.

R to @kajakallas: Disinformation reaches wide audiences via social media; it sits within our pockets, phones and apps.

While fear is one tool that the Kremlin uses to prevent democratic leaders and societies from supporting Ukraine, then disinformation and influence operations are another. 6/

[2024-03-19 17:11 UTC]

R to @kajakallas: We can't forget that frontline of Putin’s shadow war runs through the hearts of our own democracies.

The aim of influence operations is to create distrust and change our policies, influence democratic decision-making – including the decisions we make at the ballot-boxes. 5/

R to @kajakallas: Pope John Paul II has said: “If you want peace, work for justice”.

There was no justice for victims of Soviet terror after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Russian crimes in Ukraine make it clear why accountability matters – unless unpunished, it continues over and over. 4/

[2024-03-19 17:11 UTC]

R to @kajakallas: We should be learning from history that what happens elsewhere will quickly happen here – unless aggression is stopped, deterred, and contained.

That is why the best way to secure ourselves is to make sure we help Ukraine to win its fight for freedom. 3/

[2024-03-19 17:11 UTC]

R to @kajakallas: History has proven: if we let tyranny march through Europe, it's the road to unfreedom.

The motto of our times should be: if Russia stops fighting, there will be peace. If Ukraine stops fighting, there will be no more Ukraine. 2/

Honoured to receive the Walther Rathenau Prize in Berlin today.
This recognition isn't just for me, but for Estonia too.
I dedicate this prize to our Ukrainian friends.
Your courage in the fight for freedom, risking your lives, deserves the highest tribute. 1/

My message at
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23Europe2024
conference: decades of underinvestment in defence must end now.
A strong European defence industry not only ensures security and prosperity, but creates it.
Investing in defence means more jobs, economic benefits, and contributes to overall growth.

[2024-03-19 14:16 UTC]

Thanked
https://nitter.privacydev.net/Bundeskanzler
for Germany's support to Ukraine and commitment to Baltic defence.
Estonia allocates 0.25% of GDP to Ukraine's military aid each year. Introduced our idea. It's a winning strategy if all join.
Also discussed the need to invest more in Europe's defence.
