Estonian foreign minister wants the bloc to put more pressure on Moscow via Beijing
Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna has claimed that the Ukraine conflict represents an “existential problem for Europe,” and that Beijing must be punished for “enabling” Russia.
China has consistently called for a diplomatic resolution to the Ukraine conflict, but Tsahkna told journalists earlier this week that Brussels must confront and “deal with” Beijing to put more pressure on Moscow.
“If the existential threat is there, and China is the main enabler for Russia to wage the war, then first of all, we need to deal with that. And this is a very clear message,” Tsahkna said, linking his remarks to a broader EU push for tougher measures against Russia.
