Estonia announced that the country may be forced to close its border crossing points with Russia due to increased migration pressures, Estonian Police and Border Guard announced on Feb. 13.
“In recent weeks, Russia has deliberately directed to the Estonian border groups of foreigners lacking the legal right to enter the European Union,” the statement reads. “If these activities continue, we will be forced to close border crossing points to protect national security and public order, as has already been done in Finland due to migration pressure.”
The Estonian government has noted an influx of migrants and asylum seekers from Russia over recent months.
Ask the EU for help funding and coordinating it? I’m sure they have/are working on such projects already. If they aren’t, they should be.
Currently there is no such funding available and a lot of hotels are already being used for Ukrainian refugees as actual refugee facilities are full so if they come here in the winter they will just die on the streets.
Even if all that wasn’t the case there is a decent chance that this is organised by the russian government to try to create a breakaway region as they tried in the past and succeeded in other countries.
There is no funding avaliable for train tickets to other countries, but there is funding for train trasnport and manufature of guns to kill those people when they are forced to become soliders. There is no real concern about heir lives, just that somehow, the richest region in the World, EU, cant find funds for train tickets for citizens (if they are Russians). Better to let them kill and be killed in war, then pay for a ticket, that I am sure most can pay for by themselves. Just let them in if they have money for a ticket at least. That is a really weak excuse to force people to fight in a war.
And what is with this paranioa that they Russia is just sending millions of people to try to make a brakaway region in every country in Europe, instead of using those people in war. This propaganda, like most, is so contraditory and ridicolous. In one article they say, Russians don’t have any more soliders, they are losing a war, in next, they have millions of people that they will send to your country to somehow take it over. It is a classic anti-imigrant logic where migrants are both too weak and too strong, depending on the arguement. Too lazy to work and yet take all your jobs. Too incompentent to fight authority in their own country, but competent enough to take over yours. War migrants are dangerous horrible people that are at the same time running away from a war, but somehow are flipped to be disgusied unarmed soliders at the same time.
Even if all of this could be true, that somehow they could create a breakaway region in another country, would it really be more moral to let them die in a war instead of giving them a region where they would have autonomy? What kind of warmongering is this? PS: Can you give any source of any country ever sending people to a region where there werent already siginficant portions of those populations and forming a breakaway region?
