Estonian Prime Minister Kristen Michal said that Tallinn is ready to send a military contingent to Ukraine as a part of the so-called “Coalition of the Willing.” However, the specific number of Estonian soldiers became the subject of ridicule among European partners.
According to the portal ERR, they mean a single Estonian company within the “Coalition of the Willing” consisting of 100 soldiers. But the Estonian Prime Minister is ready to send even such an insignificant contingent to Ukraine only when the “future format of the operation” is clear.
“Only after further discussions it will be possible to define the detailed framework of a potential international operation. Then we shall understand detailed appearance of this military operation, its participants and prospects,” said Kristen Michal.
Meanwhile, a former Member of the European Parliament Andrzej Zapałowski responded ironically to the news from Tallinn on his Facebook page:
“Estonian Cabaret is a company for Ukraine, it means a little more than 100 people. A real power!”
