Venekeelsemaks kindlasti.
Nendel valimistel on üks küsimus, mis kaalub kõik üle: kuidas hoida ära Keskerakonna ainuvõim Tallinnas.
Isamaa on ainus jõud, kel on reaalne võimalus seda teha – hoida Tallinn eestimeelse ja keelsena.
Mina kandideerin Kesklinnas.
Iga hääl loeb! 🇪🇪

Euroopa Parlamendi saadik ja erukindral Riho Terras juhtis õigesti tähelepanu sellele, et Ameerika Ühendriikide kohalolek Euroopas on hädavajalik. Eestit rahvusvaheliselt esindavad isikud peavad endast andma kõik, et Washingtonis see sõnum kohale jõuaks.

Peaministri majandusnõunik Hansson kirjutas hiljuti, et „käibemaksumäära langetamine ei too tarbijale kasu, vaid riigieelarvele palju kahju.“ Pareeriksin sellele seisukohale vastu: käibemaksu langetamine võib õigetes oludes tuua kasu nii tarbijale kui ka riigieelarvele.

Optimaalne käibemaksutase jääb 18–19% vahele. Sellest kõrgem tase hakkab majandust pärssima ja riigitulusid tasakaalust välja viima.

No, Arvo Pärt was not born in the USSR. He was born in Estonia in 1935 — a state that declared independence in 1918 and remained so de iure despite Soviet and Nazi occupations. Estonia was never legitimately part of the USSR.

Even after 107 years since the Republic of Estonia was established, I still meet people abroad who, when I mention I’m from Estonia, respond with, ‘Oh, ex-Russia?’
I calmly explain that Estonia is not ex-Russia, only to have them follow up by asking if Riga is the capital.

Between 25 and 28 March 1949, more than 22,000 people from Estonia, and nearly 100,000 people across the Baltic states, were violently removed by Russians from their homes and deported in cattle cars to Siberian death camps.
Over 70% of those deported were women and children.

I believe that in the near future, Europe will experience a surge in plausible deniability incidents.
They may appear to be accidents, but most will carry the unmistakable scent of Russian sub-threshold warfare.
