A bill to close Estonia’s border with Russia has been submitted to the Riigikogu parliament. This was reported by Estonian broadcaster ERR.
‘The Border Guard Service of the Russian Federation has undertaken a hostile action to remove border signs from the Narva River. In December, a large-scale terrorist act took place in the Gulf of Finland with the aim of destroying the underwater infrastructure of Estonia and Finland,’ Reinsalu said.
The MP noted that the Estonian security authorities and the Estonian government have ‘appropriate possibilities and legal grounds’ to close the border with Russia.
If the bill is adopted, the Estonian-Russian border will be closed.
We shall remind you that earlier the Russian-speaking ‘Alexander Society’ in Finland said that it would hand over to the government a manifesto on the opening of the border with Russia, signed during the rallies on Sunday.
