Estonia recognized the Russian regime with terrorist
The Estonia Parliament (Riigikogu) recognized the Russian political regime terrorist due to military invasion of Ukraine and the annexation of the seized territories. All 88 deputies of parliament voted for the resolution.
The country's government said that he never recognizes the results of "false referenda" conducted by Russia on the occupied part of a neighboring country. "The Putin regime threatening nuclear weapons made Russia the largest threat to the world in both Europe and around the world," the deputies said in a joint statement of deputies.
Riigikogu condemned the mobilization declared by President Vladimir Putin, calling it a "crime against the world." The deputies also condemned the participation in the hostilities of the "PMC of Wagner", which, according to the Estonian authorities, was created with the support of the Government of the Russian Federation. They demanded that the armed forces of the so -called “LPR” and “DPR” with terrorist organizations also recognize her.
The Government of Estonia called for Russia to deprive the status of a permanent member of the UN Security Council and increase the volume of military and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine by the European Union and NATO members.
