On the 14th of March the Riigikogu (Parliament of Estonia) passed with 90 votes for the support of Ukraine and immediate steps to establish a no-fly zone. Ruuben Kaalep, the EKRE MP, the adherent of Intermarium conception and the old friend of Intermarium Support Group, was one of the lobbyists of the Communication Statement of the Riigikogu.
Estonia calls Russia aggressor in their statement and underlines that the Russian Federation’s unprovoked aggression and military activities constitute a crime against peace with no statute of limitations, and that all war crimes that have been committed will have to be punished.
The Riigikogu asks the UN member states to take immediate steps to establish a no-fly zone to prevent massive civilian casualties in Ukraine.
Estonian parliament urges all national parliaments to support additional sanctions against the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus, that participates in the aggression, and impose comprehensive trade embargo on them, which would restrict the capability of the aggressor states to wage war.
Moreover, the Riigikogu invites the membership states to support Ukraine’s application for the status of an EU candidate state and calls on granting Ukraine a roadmap towards membership of NATO.
