Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier is expected to visit Estonia on Wednesday. Steinmeier’s two-day stay is dedicated to defense policy: In the morning, the Federal President is to first visit the Ämari air force base near the Estonian Baltic Sea coast and meet Bundeswehr soldiers there who are taking part in the NATO mission to monitor Baltic airspace. Steinmeier then met Estonian President Alar Karis on Wednesday afternoon and then Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas on Thursday morning.
After the talks with President Karis, a press conference is planned for the afternoon (16:15 local time, 17:15 CET). In Estonia, the party of pro-Western Prime Minister Kallas won the parliamentary elections at the beginning of March. The Baltic EU and NATO member state is one of Ukraine’s closest allies in its defense against the Russian war of aggression.
