euro espresso programs for ukrainians on our channel of refugees in europe joint broadcast with the atp channel radio freedom program chas time voice of america inclusion of public television journalists news releases bbc news ukraine and france 24, as well as the broadcast of the information marathon, the only news is together, we are strong. glory to ukraine. congratulations. my name is yuriy fizer on the espresso tv channel. especially now in order to talk with them about how the world is initially reacting to the war that russia started in ukraine on february 24 of this year and how the world is helping us all to

cope with this onslaught because it is initially an onslaught on ukraine, but who knows what's in putin's head. she can go further, god forbid, of course. well, today my guest is an important guest, an extraordinary and plenipotentiary ambassador of the republic of estonia in ukraine . to the entire estonian people for the support we receive from them and especially the government of estonia with the help we receive in this very difficult and i would even say crazy time because no one could even imagine that something similar could happen in europe in 2022 year, first of all, i want to thank all estonians once again. so my first question to you will be the following:

the prime minister of your country kayakalas said on monday after meeting with german chancellor olaf scholz that estonia needs a greater presence of nato in the estonian sky on estonian land and on estonian land sea, does this mean that now there is a real threat to estonia from russia , that is, maybe your intelligence has some information about a possible attack on estonia. congratulations, but first of all, of course, i want to thank all ukrainians that you did and what you continue to do it's just amazing you protect your own country but not only you protect the free world and if we talk about estonia and the russian threat, it actually existed for decades and we know that they

had and continue to have plans for us these plans against us they even worked out during military exercises, for example, the west full-scale war began on february 24. by the way, this happened on the day of estonia's independence, so russia personally offended us, all this shows there what is probably not enough to have in estonia on a rotational basis only one battalion from great britain, france, and also given that we need a greater presence of allies in estonia in order to resist these threats but as i said, we have known since the 90s that russia portends that we have plans and they even conducted military exercises according to these plans, mr. ambassador, you just

said that the threat existed and the threat exists, what do you mean, we always tried to get information about russian plans, military plans and of the reduced armed forces, for example, in our intelligence there is a joke after all. this is not exactly a joke, but the reality is that in the work of the estonian intelligence there are three priorities: russia and russia, therefore we never had and do not have any illusions that only one force can pose a threat for estonia and in general for this corner of the world and this is russia, my second question to you will be as follows: the prime ministers of the baltic states of estonia, latvia and lithuania met in riga last friday.

as far as i know, they discussed common goals for nato summit in madrid, this summit is scheduled for the end of june this year with jamon gol. what kind of common goals are these, given that you are already members of the alliance, first of all, i already talked a little about it, it is the strengthening of the eastern flank of nato, our three baltic countries need a larger military presence but not only in addition to this and i consider it very important we need to strengthen the black sea region it if we talk about nato, such actions will also help ukraine plus it is very important that nato's open door policy continues and at the same time we we mean ukraine and we encourage ukraine

to continue realizing your nato ambitions, plus it is obvious that this is also about our scandinavian neighbors, they have now also seen that neutrality is not an option with such a neighbor as russia. estonia has been a member of nato since 2004 if i understand correctly, given your experience, why ukraine needs to become a member of nato, because then there will be no dilemma about whether, in case of need, we should use our troops and not just provide some help, then we we will have a concrete situation and a concrete picture. in my opinion at the moment and this makes me a little sad. now we are talking more about what nato is not doing.

instead, we should focus our attention on what nato is doing and on what the nato member countries are doing, most of them provide ukraine with weapons and in my opinion, it is quite good, the weapons are better and better and more every time. at the same time, they are members of nato. therefore, it must be said that it is thanks to the fact that estonia is in nato that we can provide ukraine with a huge amount of weapons that we have. thank you, mr. ambassador. by the way, what kind of weapons do you supply? we have supplied and may supply in the near future. it is obvious that we are focused on the supply of anti- tank weapons

. what kinds of weapons did we provide, but you already have them, and i must tell you that we were very surprised by how many weapons we were able to transfer to ukraine. plus artillery we also continue to provide you with artillery, this is what remains from soviet times. are these nato weapons, some are really left from soviet times, but the anti-tank weapons

are modern. a few days ago, estonia hosted a large cyber security training, it was attended by representatives of about 30 countries, why is it so important for you to conduct such cyber training, the first cyber attack on our state structures took place in 2007 and it was done by russia, that is, then we ourselves felt what it means when someone wants to harm your infrastructure on the internet and disable it, so since then we have worked a lot to improve our skills and mobilize our allies for this, because in parallel with the kinetic war of russia against ukraine, which is ongoing at this very moment, and we

support ukraine in it, in parallel with it, there is also a cyber threat and cyber attacks continue, and we cannot see everything. we cannot avert everything either because it is simply invisible, so it is really very important to also have such means of countermeasures, and i am very glad that in february we finally adopted an agreement that allowed ukraine to join the united center for advanced cyber ​​technologies in tallinn. welcome. i believe that this is a big step for ukraine as well go ahead yes led led x-facts how are your ukrainian girls thank you once again, can estonia completely get rid of its dependence on russian energy carriers right now and do it we have improved

our energy connection with europe but at the same time we have to admit that ukraine did it even faster than we had planned, you just took it and joined the european grid and it works. hello, and we still have to do it. we produce our own electricity, we can buy it, and in the northern countries we have our own oil fields shelves we do not need to buy coal from russia. and if we talk about russian gas, there is very little of it on our market, only a limited amount of gas, we can receive it in liquefied form through the ports, we are even planning to soon together with finland to build a new such port , but at the moment lithuania is helping us, and we

can buy oil on the world market and deliver it by tankers. therefore, it is not a problem for us, we are a small , compact, flexible country, mr. ambassador. do you think that europe is united now, the final united and here i think that now europe is more united than we expected, is it perfect or is it ideal? it seems to me that you can always do better in brussels , there are very often arguments about that, i will not call them battles, so that countries can convince each other one thing is that we can do more and faster in order for ukraine to join us. despite this, i would still say that we are united, but the battles

still continue. of course, this is democracy, this is democracy. conditions for more compact countries like ours. we have to convince. we have to argue. recognized russian war crimes in ukraine as genocide, so my question is why smaller countries, for example, estonia and latvia, can do this and not just talk about it, while other european countries talk but are a little afraid to do this. well, they are looking for different explanations for not doing this, i would

compare it is with ships in the sea that are smaller and faster can maneuver faster than large oil tankers or, for example, aircraft carriers, very often it is smaller ships that lead others, for example, the first country that recognized the independence of estonia was iceland is the smallest country. a member of nato is one of the smallest countries in europe. therefore, this is our method. we call everything by its proper name. i think it is important in a different way . should say directly the same with the supply of weapons to ukraine, that is, smaller countries do it easier than larger countries, it also

depends on your geographical location, besides that, there is also a question of values. i have already several repeatedly emphasized that we will not leave the democracy that was attacked alone because we ourselves were left alone. in 1939, then we lost our independence and we know what it is like to be under russian occupation during the war. this madness is the repetition of such madness, we are now seeing , for example, in buchi, so first of all, these values ​​are now standing, but in addition, we are again returning to the threats we have felt since we regained our independence in 1991, so every tank that ukrainians can knock out with the help of javelins received from us will reduce the threat against us

. thank you very much. and if we talk about refugees, we know, you know. i know. everyone knows that now there are a lot of refugees all over europe, they are also in estonia. can you tell how many ukrainians there are in your country now ? as of this morning, this number is more than 33 thousand. and this is more than two percent of the total population of estonia, and now they are coming to us more and more often through russia, at first they were deported there, but some manage to escape to estonia, so the number quite big but welcome we know what you need

now do they live in temporary shelters or in families actually it's different we have prepared places for them to live i know of one big powder that usually runs between estonia sweden and finland this is a ferry with private rooms, a tv and a table, we gave it to ukrainians, it is not very convenient, but we use such things as a temporary place to live, besides, many people just give their apartments, you can use them for free for example, even our former president thomas hendrik ilves gave his house on a farm to

a ukrainian family from kharkiv. thank you very much , mr. ambassador. i am sure and i hope not. i know that you are also sure that ukraine will win this war and it will happen already. soon, but after this war, ukraine will be different and europe will be different, but how different will europe be? i think it will change a lot, we will never go back to february 24, in my opinion, some international organizations will have to change completely for example, if we talk about the osce, what role does the organization play, it did not help to avert war, or for example, the un, its security council, that is, it does not only apply to europe, it also did not

help to avert a major war in europe, so i think i think that the security picture of international relations is mechanisms that use this kind of situations, it is necessary to create something new, it is necessary to invent some new ways, because otherwise there is always an alternative we must strengthen our own security, the free world must interact more closely and countries in it, we should support each other more. thank you very much, mr. ambassador. this was my last question to you. thank you for joining me today and now you have the opportunity to address the ukrainian people. please say a few words. ukrainians, you are doing a great job, we all admire you, but we are not we are just admiring sitting down, we support you, we provide you with military aid and also humanitarian

simple estonian people do not just wish you well , they send you medical equipment, various things that you need right now, we and you and you thank you, mr. ambassador. thank you to estonia for the help we receive. well, i have to end today's conversation with me on a direct connection. the ambassador of the republic of estonia was extraordinary and plenipotentiary. the course talked about how estonia helps ukraine, how it supports us, this is quite difficult. no, not simply, not simply, i am a difficult time, and how we together try to resist the russian invasion that began on february 24, and how we will win together with all of europe. well, i have to conclude with this my name is yuri fizer, see you soon
