I have seen it and we are considering it. We will talk to the Ukrainians, look into it ourselves, and move forward. This is a very fresh proposal, Herem said at the government press conference that he saw the new proposal only on Thursday morning – for this reason, he could not disclose its details. #Datasel #EestiKaitse #UkrainaLaskemoona (translated)

Estonian Defense Minister Martin Herem announced that the country is considering a new compromise proposal submitted by the Italian-registered company Datasel regarding the delivery of shells intended for Ukraine, which is currently the subject of a legal dispute. #Datasel #EestiKaitse #UkrainaLaskemoona (translated)

Estonian Minister of Defence Martin Herem has opposed proposals to disclose the defense companies receiving funds from the government for aiding Ukraine, arguing that it risks their security and could make them targets for Russian intelligence services. #EestiKaitsetööstus #UkrainaAbistamine #MartinHerem (translated)

"We have HIMARS. We have previously received loitering munitions, which are essentially winged drones, similar to Russia's Lancet. We already have them in Estonia. It has been present before this year. Its unit has also been trained," said Minister of Defense Martin Herem, "The state of air defense is improving every month." #EestiKaitse #Õhutõrje #SõjalinePlaneerimine (translated)

"No matter where we position our troops, they are vulnerable when we lack air defense. Once this air defense issue is resolved, it will be a particularly strong argument that has been achieved in defense planning. As long as air defense is insufficient, the positioning of troops at specific points is of less importance," said security expert Rainer Saksa, adding that shifting units less than a hundred kilometers is not particularly strategically important. #EestiKaitse #Õhutõrje #SõjalinePlaneerimine (translated)

Defense expert Rainer Saks notes that the geographical redeployment of Estonian armed forces is not of great strategic importance, as the lack of air defense makes the troops vulnerable, while the focus should be directed towards the development of air defense and attack drones. #EestiKaitse #Õhutõrje #SõjalinePlaneerimine (translated)

Estonia is strengthening its defense positions by moving its armed forces closer to the border with Russia and increasing its long-range strike capabilities to prepare for possible aggression on NATO's eastern flank after the war in Ukraine, reported the Financial Times. #EestiKaitse #NATO #Venemaa (translated)

The new Chancellor of the Ministry of Defence, Kristjan Mäe, emphasizes his responsibility to ensure the proper use of defense funds and to address the scandals that have shaken the sector in order to strengthen Estonia's security and prevent a possible military attack from Russia. #EestiKaitse #Kaitseministeerium #Riigikaitse (translated)

Eesti Kaitsepolitsei peadirektori Margo Pallosoni sõnul on kapo viimastel aastatel edukalt ära hoidnud mitmeid Venemaa kavandatud sabotaaži- ja rünnakukatseid, mille fookus on nihkunud kaitsetööstusettevõtetele, et takistada sõjalise abi jõudmist Ukrainasse. #kapo #EestiKaitsepolitsei #Venemaarünnakud

Kaitseminister Martin Herem kinnitas, et ta ei kavatse sekkuda kaitseväe juhataja töösse ning plaanib keskenduda vähemalt kuue kuu jooksul oma ametikohustustele, et analüüsida ja võimalusel täiustada Eesti kaitsevalmidust, ilma et ta ise otseselt poliitilisi muudatusi ellu viiks. #Kaitseminister #EestiKaitsevägi #MartinHerem
