    There has been some very loud opposition to this, but thankfully it’s a minority. Great to see that our constitutional right of not being discriminated against based on sex finally also applies to marriage as well.

    By the way, shameless plug, we have a small Estonian community going at !eesti@lemm.ee - if anybody wants to chat about Estonia or with Estonians, then English posts are more than welcome as well 😃

      The Baltic counties were never tight with Russia, they were occupied by the USSR.

        I realize that I did not use the most appropriate word, what I meant is under their influence / occupation, sorry about that and thanks for correcting me

    The biggest concern I have now is Russia declaring that this means Nazis have taken control and starting an invasion of Estonia.

      Estonia is a NATO country and with how poorly Russia has been doing in Ukraine it would be a huge risk. Also I think Lithuania would be first, if they ever decide to re-take USSR territories, but again that would mean attacking NATO country.

    This is great news. People are correct when they say it too long, but even still I’m a lot happier to see news of things getting better rather than things getting worse.
