God, finally somebody in the EU said something!
I'm aware that relations with Russia are... "delicate" to say the least, but to abandon an EU member in a pretty volatile situation is pretty shitty, IMHO.

And to a lesser extent, this also applies to the States; if they can meddle in European affairs and denounce the reluctance of the EU to embrace Turkey then surely they could've said something about this.

Not to say Estonia shouldn't fight their own battles (I mean Goddamn, at least fight in instances where you know you can have a chance at winning), but come on, a little solidarity people!
