The relatively newly formed center party Estonia 200 and the current cooperation partner the Social Democrats will also to be part of the government.
– This agreement ensures that Estonia is protected, that we can continue as an independent and self-sufficient country, says Kallas at a press conference.
The statement refers to that Kallas and her party coalition stood for the most US-friendly and conflictescalating foreign policy towards Russia during the election campaign, while immigration-critical Ekre is considered to have lost a lot by advocating negotiations with both Russia and the US.
“Defense and security “, i.e. war with Russia, is now at the top of the new government's agenda.
Both Sweden, Finland and the Baltic states thus have governments that are very loyal to the political establishment in Washington, which strengthens the American possibility to start a dreaded proxy war around the Baltic Sea.
