Estonian President Alar Karis still holds Kremlin head Vladimir Putin responsible for the war against Ukraine. At the same time, in his opinion, the Russian people cannot simply stand aside. He stated this in an interview with ETV, the text version of which was given by the ERR portal..

“I still believe that this is Putin’s war, but with one addition: the Russian people must also choose a side. They can't stand by and just watch what's going on.. Here's a little addition,"

According to him, it is clear that it was not the Russian people who started the war, but the Putin administration did it, and it is they who are responsible for the invasion..

Earlier, Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas explained why it is dangerous to agree to peace on Putin's terms.. Now is not the time to push for a premature peace, she said.. If Russia does not give up its goal of conquering new territories in Ukraine, peace talks have little chance of achieving anything, history shows that appeasement only strengthens and encourages aggressors.
