Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna stated that Tallinn is not happy about Ukrainian drones falling on its territory, but considers it a justified price for attacks on Russian targets. He told the Financial Times about this.
According to him, the Russian leadership is concerned about Ukrainian strikes, particularly due to their impact on oil exports through the Baltic region. The minister noted that up to 60% of Russian oil exports pass through this route.

Tsahkna also supported the campaign of Ukrainian strikes on Russian infrastructure, which Kyiv calls "long-range sanctions." In his opinion, these attacks have affected sentiments in the Kremlin.
At the same time, he spoke out against negotiations with the Russian leadership at the current stage. Tsahkna believes that Moscow is using the negotiation process to buy time and try to split European countries.
In recent months, Baltic countries have repeatedly reported drone incidents. In particular, in May, a drone was discovered in Lithuania, which authorities assumed could be Ukrainian. Also, in Latvia, several drones violated the country's airspace and fell on its territory after flying from Russia.
Following these incidents, Ukraine announced its readiness to send its experts to help strengthen the airspace security of the Baltic countries.
