Estonia to provide €400,000 in humanitarian support for Ukraine
Estonia will allocate around €400,000 in additional assistance to Ukraine to help the country deal with the aftermath of Russian strikes on energy infrastructure.
Estonia's Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna said Estonia is channelling around €400,000 through Estonian non-governmental organisations to support Ukrainians facing difficulties caused by ongoing Russian attacks on energy facilities and critical infrastructure.
"The support will fund mobile crisis centres, and evacuation and transit centres … Putin is trying to use cold and darkness as a weapon, but every generator, every repaired cable and every euro of aid sends a clear message: Ukraine will not break," Tsahkna wrote on X.
