🇫🇷💪=🇪🇺💪

🎉 Happy #EuropeDay ! Let's celebrate the European family, bound together by shared values such as freedom & democracy. As Estonia 🇪🇪 joined both the EU & NATO 20 yrs ago, let's lend a hand to those, like Ukraine 🇺🇦, who are striving to join our family too!

This year, on 9 May we celebrate #EuropeDay and #20YearsTogether .

Joining the #EU 🇪🇺 has given Estonians 🇪🇪 growth, prosperity, stronger rights and freedoms.

🧵Joining the EU has also given us the opportunity to contribute to EU actions and enrich the EU. /1

Another delivery! In addition to patrol vessels, Estonia 🇪🇪 has shipped more boats to Ukraine 🇺🇦 in cooperation with our ally Denmark 🇩🇰. We will continue to help Ukraine defend its freedom & #StopRussianAggression .

An attack on you would be an attack on all of us, Evika Siliņa 🇱🇻🇺🇦, Kaja Kallas and Ingrida Šimonytė. Our meeting in Riga showed: The bond between Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania and Germany is and remains strong.

I am in Riga today to meet with Evika Siliņa 🇱🇻🇺🇦, Ingrida Šimonytė and Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz Olaf Scholz.

We are going to discuss countering Russian aggression in #Ukraine and the Kremlin’s shadow war against the free world, boosting our defence readiness and regional connectivity.

L' #Estonie et la #France unies comme jamais auparavant - c'est une très bonne chose pour notre #Europe .
🇫🇷🤝🇪🇪

Happy to meet with Prime Minister Gabriel Attal.

#Estonia and #France are good partners and strong allies. We highly value France’s military presence in Estonia.

We're also interested in boosting our business relations, there's great potential in clean tech and innovation.

Important discussion with President Emmanuel Macron.

We live in decisive times. #Estonia and #France share a common wish to shape Europe’s future.

Our top strategic priorities: Ukraine’s victory and European defence readiness. We must convince partners and allies to do more.

Good conversation with Sonia Delesalle-Stolper Libération on the security of Europe at Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.

There’s a war on European soil. Our aim must be Ukraine’s victory.

If we don’t set victory as a goal, if we hold back, then it is also unclear what actions and policies should follow. 1/

Honoured to speak at Fondation Schuman foundation event at Sciences Po.

I emphasised Europe is an unfinished project: as long as there are nations sharing our heritage, believing in rule of law and democracy, wanting to be part of our union, and as long as grey zones exist. 1/

I’m in Paris today.

Looking forward to meeting with President Emmanuel Macron and Prime Minister Gabriel Attal.

I’ll also speak at Fondation Schuman foundation event at Sciences Po and take part in Libération event „L’Université Libé“ at Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.

20 years ago today, #Estonia joined the EU.

We knew we did not join a ready-made organisation – the #EU is constantly developing and we've gladly helped shape it.

Our accession has been a success story. It now allows us to help others, including #Ukraine , on their way to join.

👏 Today we celebrate Veterans Day in #Estonia . Join us in saluting nearly 3700 🇪🇪 veterans for their service on international missions with our allies & partners!

Today, we are honoring Estonian troops who have fought and are fighting in international operations.

Thank you for your service and for keeping Estonia & NATO safe and strong. 🇪🇪🇪🇪🇪🇪

Agree with Speaker Mike Johnson: history judges us for what we do. Hope Congress will do the right thing.

Ukraine needs our help now.

If you look away, it will cost more. Security and prosperity in Europe and the U.S. are tied. Giving Ukraine aid saves American jobs and tax dollars.

My message to EU leaders: let's demonstrate the will to defeat Russian aggression.

Israel’s success in intercepting Iran’s attack shows the power of cooperation and help from partners. It must also remind us to help Ukraine. They are under daily drone and missile attacks.

#EUCO

My message at #EDSS2024 : we have a very real threat to defend against.

Europe is facing a critical moment that will shape our future for decades.

We need to ramp up our defence industry and spending. With the right resolve and united effort, I believe we can succeed.

Estonian Internal Security Service celebrated its 104th anniversary. On this occasion, we also published annual review. You can find it here:

In my meeting with Donald Tusk, emphasised that the free world must demonstrate the will to defeat Russian aggression.

Ukraine needs both our swift military aid and long-term support.

Hope to deepen our excellent cooperation with Poland on defence and countering hybrid threats.
