The Estonian parliament emphasizes in the statement that “Russia must immediately release the Ukrainian ships with their crews, and allow them unhindered passage to Ukrainian ports.”

In addition, the Estonian MPs urged all nations to support Ukraine in defending its territorial integrity and condemn Russia’s aggression against the sovereign Ukraine, and not recognize the illegal annexation of Crimea.
