Authorities in Estonia on Thursday said they would prevent Russian nationals from obtaining temporary residence permits or visas to study in Estonia.
The Estonian Foreign Minister, Urmas Reinsalu, said in a statement that “maintaining sanctions against Russia is essential to ensure unrelenting pressure on this country.”
“If sanctions help to end Russian aggression, a positive effect on our own security will ensue,” he added.
Belarus also in the sights
Estonia also said that short-term employment of Russian and Belarusian citizens with legal residence permits issued by another EU member state would no longer be allowed.
Belarus, ally of the Kremlin, facilitated Russia’s invasion of Ukraine by allowing Russian troops to attack from its territory.
