“I don’t see any problems in this”: Estonian Minister of Defense confirmed the intention to transfer 155-mm cluster-type shells to Ukraine

The information that appeared the day before and was voiced by the Al Arabiya TV channel about a certain European country intending to supply cluster munitions to Ukraine was confirmed, Estonia will act as a supplier. In Tallinn, they are not going to hide this, but they did not disclose the details of the transaction.

Ukraine begged the West for deliveries of cluster munitions. Kyiv has repeatedly demanded the transfer of artillery shells of this type, saying that with their help it intends to "compensate for the numerical superiority of the Russian army." Representatives of the Zelensky regime knocked on the thresholds of the offices of military officials in the United States, but were refused there, since American laws do not prohibit the use of cluster munitions, but prohibit their transfer to other countries.



Almost a year later, help to Kyiv came from a completely different direction, Estonia will supply the Armed Forces of Ukraine with cluster artillery shells of 155-mm caliber. This type of ammunition has been in service with the self-defense forces of the republic since the 90s of the last century, they were purchased from Germany, which previously produced them, but currently does not produce them and refused to use them.

If we provide Ukraine with cluster munitions, I don’t see any problems in this, since both warring parties use them on the territory of Ukraine (...) I don’t consider it possible to talk about the details of the agreement, including the quantity and nomenclature

- said the Minister of Defense of the Republic Hanno Pevkur.

Delivery details are not disclosed, so neither the scope of delivery nor the timing of the transfer of ammunition is known. It is worth noting that the transfer will take place only if it is approved by Germany. Estonia seems to have sent an application, we will wait for Berlin's decision.

          Am I threatening a NATO country? Yes, ok, sir, how am I threatening, there are no threats, there is a cantotation of the facts of everything.
          It is difficult to argue with Herr Bismarck.
          It’s also not worth arguing with the Bible, and after the time to scatter stones, the time comes to collect them, well, or easier - words spoken even in a whisper can cause a rumble, done in secret can become known, done to harm causes a storm in response. And this is already from Confucian thoughts.
          By the way, Ukrainians are a completely foreign people for me; there is no blood of the same with them.
          Russian, Tatar, Mordovian, Polish and Prussian are mixed somehow it happened, but there is no Ukrainian.
          Russians in our time are divided into ethnic Russians, Russians in spirit and vyrusei who are now fighting against our army.
          And those who fight against our army must be destroyed.
          I have such an opinion.

        Moreover, after the transfer of tanks, NATO had the last trump card - aircraft. And they have nothing more to scare us with, which means that after Ukraine, NATO can be safely returned to the 1991 borders. There will be nothing to object to them.

        What nonsense. Since the summer, we have been treating them to both phosphorus and submunitions. My brother was personally under cluster shelling, he brought a dart from a cluster munition as evidence and ran under phosphorus, he wrote above, across the field like a hare. He, phosphorus flakes falls. It's good that the wind was, carried to the side

      And in response, they need to conduct unscheduled exercises near by, so that they forget to think what they wanted to convey and to whom. And then the sprat republics completely relaxed.

      cluster ones will not be supplied or used, because it is a double-edged sword, then ours will also begin to use it, both sides are not interested in this, there was news that rockets with millions of balls would allegedly be supplied to the Khameirs, but so its use was not confirmed

        And who told you that they were not used?
        This is a photo from a dump of remnants of ammunition in Kharkiv, which are pulled together by local utilities.

        Don’t carry nonsense, both sides use both phosphorus and cluster munitions. Since spring and summer already. At least my brother has seen both since May. And I’ve been under cluster shelling under phosphorus

      So far, the Estonian ambassador has been expelled. But as ? I do not know what they think at the very top ... It would not be bad to completely stop trading in any goods, block railway communications, block sea ports and air communications if possible ... Set up a blockade of Estonians. These are my desires .. Whether they are possible or not is another question .. a huge mistake of the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU Gorbachev and the alcoholic traitor of his homeland Yeltsin to allow these Baltic stubs to join NATO ... They actually gave the Baltic to the enemies. Now St. Petersburg is at a distance of an artillery strike from NATO positions ... All the work of Peter the Great and subsequent generations of Russian statesmen was pros..gassed.

      With cluster munitions, like phosphorus, we and they have been treating each other since the summer. My brother was also under cluster shelling, showed me a dart from ammunition and ran like a hare across the field from phosphorus flakes - it’s good that the wind was and it was blown to the side

    Unfortunately, you do not see problems because Russia has not yet created them for you. And it should have been for a long time.

    And it does not lead you to any thoughts, does it? Since they are asking for it, it means that someone wants it and it is beneficial for someone.
    Someone wants Russia to break.

    Well, how are we going to dance to someone else's tune and go on about?

    I hope Russia will show restraint and will not succumb to provocations. hi

    And what does it cost us to simply say that we are not interested in Europe at hand due to the lack of resources and we will not embarrass ourselves with anything, nothing at all. You are not ashamed of your own international rules, so we will not. The first will be Poland, the Baltic states and England with overseas lands (Australia, Zealand), and then the rest in behavior

    Ukroreyhu will put everything - if only to kill more Russians. And the longer our "strategist" drags out the war, the more victims. But the impotent from the General Staff. Gerasimov can only talk about "grinding" the enemy, with inevitable further "regrouping". Well, for almost a year everyone understands that there will be no capitulation of the Nazis "from critical losses", this is a war to the last Ukrainian! So we'll see cassettes, Abrams and F-15s all there.

    Come to your senses! Why are there fascists in Ukraine, but it is from the lips of a Russian person from Russia that such disgusting abomination is now heard in relation to another country?

      Did Eva indicate the country in the comment? No. She is right in the sense that even "insects barked" from our soft policy. Someday we will have to fix this and throw "Mashenka" pencils on their territory.

    And here's what - https://russian.rt.com/world/news/1102628-yaponiya-rossiya-sankcii

    So far only Japan. At any moment, Germany and the United States will do the same.
    Answer a simple question: how many tomographs and ultrasound machines do you know that are completely Russian-made, from scratch?

    And before you shout "we'll do our own, let them bring it down!" Please remember that the import substitution program has been in effect since 2014, and there is still no own production of modern processors in Russia. It's been almost 9 years. And think how many people can die without high-tech medical care during this time, while we replace tomographs and ultrasound machines.

        War with NATO, seriously? You don't know the history or where you live it doesn't happen? Everything will be like in 39 in Poland - condemnation and nothing more. No one is going to die for Estonia, the maximum supply of weapons to Ukraine.
