An astute observation.

Do not forget, that Kremlin is very clever organization. They show it all in much worse lights, than it actually is! Russian propaganda against Estonia is only getting worse. They take few facts and exaggerate ALOT.

Russian minority's life is not as bad, as it seems. Although Estonian isn't easy language, learning it in Estonia is very easy. Estonian government is not trying to keep russians away from Estonian citizenship. It's defending estonian language from other large language groups, that could easily kill estonian with only as little, as 40 or 50 years. Chances are, that estonian isn't living language in 100 years time. So it's every estonian's duty to defend estonian, as much as possible.

Government isn't only setting up traps for russian speaking "minority". They also have language-learning programs, affordable to anyone, who cares of his/her and their childrens future.

PS Inga, kui Sinu eesti keele tase on väga hea ja aktsent väike, siis arvatavasti ei tule Sul töö leidmisel probleeme!
Soovin sulle edu ja loodan, et Sa siiski jääd tööle Eestisse!

If stars are lighted it means that somebody needs it.
If NATO is extending to the East - a serious reason should exist. NATO is not a charity society but a military organization. And it is moving towards Russian borders closer and closer.

Former countries of the Soviet Union and countries behind the Communist Iron Curtain join NATO as a guarantee that never again will they be ruled by people they regard as foreigners. It's not part of an agenda intended to threaten anyone.

What are intentions of those who uses desire of protection to expand agressive military alliance? That's the question that determines our views on NATO.
