Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna said that Estonia was unwavering in its support for Ukraine until it wins the war. “In addition to military assistance, we are supporting Ukraine’s reform efforts and reconstruction. This is why we decided to support the Council of Europe’s Ukraine action plan again, as it allows us to contribute to the country’s reconstruction by reinforcing the rule of law and advancing democracy and human rights,” Foreign Minister Tsahkna underlined. “We have also decided to support the action plans for Moldova and Georgia, which means supporting their reform processes and Western course,” the minister added.
As an advocate for media freedom and the co-president of the Media Freedom Coalition, Estonia has considered the protection of journalists a priority. “We want to contribute to journalists in Council of Europe countries being able to work without endangering themselves. This is why we consider it important to support the council’s platform to promote the protection of journalism and safety of journalists,” Minister Tsahkna said.
