The Estonian authorities, following Finland, allowed the “partial or complete” closure of checkpoints on the border with Russia
Estonian authorities are allowing “partial or complete” closure of checkpoints on the border with Russia, the country’s Ministry of Internal Affairs told Postimees. The department noted that they knew about Finland’s plans to close four checkpoints on the border with Russia. “This, of course, could mean that people who have been gathering at these borders until now will end up at Estonian border crossings,” Veiko Kommusaar, head of the Estonian Border Guard, told the publication.
