The Praktskoy did not break out

The Estonian border guard did not allow a delegation from Pskov to the country, led by Vice-mayor of the city, Sergei Gavrilov, who intended to take part in Tallinn events dedicated to the USSR Victory Day over Germany. This was reported by Postimees with reference to the ambassador of Russia in Tallinn Alexander Petrov. “The holiday did not do without a spoon of tar,” the official noted.

The police and border guard department explained the decision made by the fact that "the explanations of the persons about the purpose of the trip were contradictory and visas were issued for other purposes." In total, five people were included in the delegation, law enforcement officers specified, and the Russians tried to enter at about 8:15 in the morning through the Luhamaa border room. After refusing the entrance, the delegation went back to Russia.

“I don’t know all the details, but I think that in this situation it is important to show a sense of a special understanding of the reasons for such a trip and motives with which Pskov’s representatives went to Estonia,” the ambassador Petrov said in turn.

Meanwhile, the Russian diplomatic adviser Stanislav Makarenko told TASS that the Estonian law enforcement officers detained the country of the country Dmitry Linter, who is the organizer of the Immortal Regiment planned for 18 hours Monday of the Imortary Regiment.

Meanwhile, representatives of the Estonia veteran organizations did not support the procession. The action "Immortal Regiment", explained in these structures, has been held in the country for several years, and the Linter has not taken part in it. “Form (event. - Ed.) There was still somewhat different, more calm - in the territory of the military cemetery,” explained Nikolai Byshok, head of the Union of Veteransky organizations of Estonia. “People came with photographs, portraits of relatives, they left them, hung it on a special stand. But for some reason the linter would like to hold a procession.”

In turn, the chairman of the board of the Tallinn Union of Afghanistan Veterans, Local Wars and Conflicts "Battle Brotherhood" Oleg Kulikov noted that such a procession would be appropriate in Russia, but not in Estonia, where it gives the ground for provocations.

The promotion in the military cemetery continues in Tallinn on Monday.
