"Mr President, I should like to draw your attention to the scandalous process due to start in Tallinn in two days. The Estonian authorities are preparing to remove from the city centre the graves of soldiers who died in battle liberating Tallinn from the fascist occupiers in September 1944 and the monument to those soldiers. Exonerating those Estonians who fought on the Nazi side during World War II while ignoring the heroism of those who sacrificed their lives in order to defeat Hitler and his local allies is a part of present-day state politics. Unfortunately, a similar policy is being applied in my country, Latvia.
I am protesting against such dangerous politics, not only personally but also on behalf of a group of 37 representatives of Russian speakers, Jews and the Russian media from 15 EU Member States – including Estonia – which is visiting Parliament today."@en1
