Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas is wanted in Russia for destroying war memorials of Soviet soldiers, causing tension in Moscow, and accrediting Russia’s foreign minister for destroying war memorials of any country is disrespectful.
Before December 26, 1991, Estonia was part of the Soviet Union; later, it declared independence and became a democratic country. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, a total of 15 countries declared independence, including Russia, which is known as the Soviet Union.
TASS is the news agency that covered the topic of Prime Minister Kallas and accused their government ministers of disrespecting the Soviet Union’s Second World War Memorials, which later became national news in Russia.
Not only the Estonian government is on Russia’s wanted list, but other Baltic nations like Lithuania and Latvia are also covered in the report and are on the wanted list in Moscow, according to spokesman Dmitry Peskov.
It is the first time the Russian government has added a foreign leader’s name to their wanted list. This step also sparked some controversy in geopolitics; the step by Russia shows the sourness of relations between Russia and the Baltic nations.
All things changed after Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022. Most European nations and their organisations sanctioned Russia. Further, many nations like Belarus supported Russia, and India kept its neutral stance in the geopolitical war, showing its strategy to balance both the United States of America, NATO, and Russia.
Russia has around 3 or 4 more vaccinations compared to Ukraine; the sole reason Ukraine still has a chance in war is only financial aid from foreign states; NATO and America are supporting Ukraine financially. The 2024 US elections are near, and Trump played the card and asked why the government is giving out free money to Ukraine when European nations are in the backseat of the war and still buying oil from Russia.
