Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna called for increased pressure on Russia following its latest attacks against Ukraine.

Tsahkna stated that the cities of Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Odesa were subjected to intense Russian bombardment overnight, adding that nine civilians were killed and many others were injured in the attacks.

Emphasizing that Russia's current course can only be changed through strong pressure, Tsahkna said: “Russia will not change its course unless it is forced to do so. Only sustained pressure can alter the Kremlin’s calculations. More political pressure, more economic pressure, and greater military support for Ukraine are needed. Russia must understand that its strategy has failed and that it cannot escape accountability.”
