Today 28 July, the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned the chargé d’affaires of the Russian Embassy to issue a protest and present a formal note regarding the violation of Estonia’s maritime border.
The violation occurred near the island of Vaindloo, where on 26 July, a border guard vessel of the Russian Federation entered Estonia’s territorial sea without permission.
“The violation of Estonia’s maritime border by Russia is a serious and unacceptable incident. This message was also conveyed to the chargé d’affaires of the Russian Federation,” Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna said.
