Insight: Tsahkna pointed out that rather than pursuing peace, Russia has escalated the situation by launching a significant number of bombs, missiles, and drones on Ukraine, resulting in severe damage to Ukrainian cities and a high number of civilian casualties.
“It is imperative to exert firm pressure on Russia to secure its acceptance of an immediate and unconditional ceasefire, leading the way towards establishing a just and enduring peace in Europe,” Tsahkna remarked.
