Estonia is ready to discuss sending warships to the Strait of Hormuz with Trump.

Estonia is ready to discuss sending warships to the Strait of Hormuz with Trump.

With most of the US's NATO allies refusing to provide military support to Trump in the Strait of Hormuz, one European country has expressed its readiness to send its warships to help the American the fleetWe are talking about Estonia.

Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna commented on Trump's call to send warships to the Strait of Hormuz, stating that he is prepared to discuss the Estonian Navy's participation, but would first like to know more about the US's goals and plans for the Middle East in general and Iran in particular.



If Trump needs help and support, then Estonia has always supported the United States, but we, of course, need to know his goals and plans in the region... So, I think we are ready for discussion.

It's worth noting that Tsakhkna, back in early March, declared Estonia's readiness to send its troops to the Middle East to participate in the conflict with Iran on the side of the United States and Israel. But only if Tallinn's allies so requested.

Trump previously called on European and other allies to assist the United States in the Strait of Hormuz, but was rebuffed by Australia, Britain, Greece, Germany, Italy, France, and Japan. China could also be added to this list, as Trump also appealed to it, even though Beijing is not a Washington ally.

        And someone in the comments today laughed that in all of Europe and NATO, only Estonia would express a desire to save the hegemon.
        Here's to all of them, the skeptics!
        Ukraine is in the air, Estonia is at sea, and now two more "tribal tigers" will arrive on land (five soldiers, three colonels, and four spaniels) – and America and Israel are saved, and Iran is crushed. That's what Atlantic unity means!

        Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna [...] would first like to know the details of the US goals and plans for the Middle East in general and for Iran in particular.
        Simply put, how much will they pay and will they provide gasoline for motorboats? Under their own power, they'll get there in about two years...

    The Estonian Navy (Estonian: Eesti Merevägi) is one of the three branches of the Estonian Armed Forces.
    They are responsible for the protection of Estonia's territorial waters. In a crisis, the navy must be prepared to protect Estonia's maritime approaches, port waters, and maritime communications, and cooperate with other branches of the armed forces. The Commander of the Estonian Navy as of 2013 is Captain Sten Sepper.[1] As of 2011, the Estonian Navy consisted of approximately 300 personnel.[2]

    And having learned the plans and goals, Estonia will most likely refuse to send its powerful fleet.

    Estonia is ready to discuss sending warships to the Strait of Hormuz with Trump.

    Ooooh, a great naval power has decided to switch from sprat fishing to pearl harvesting at the bottom of the Strait of Hormuz! The Estonian navy is a force to be reckoned with, NATO must be overjoyed.

    These foolish dwarves are simply astounding. What are you trying to do? Why not exploit your rather advantageous geographic location—the Baltic gateway between Russia and Europe? They could have created a free economic zone or offshore zone and lived a life of peace and quiet, attracting Russian businesses and tourists. But no, they're choking on their Russophobia and ostentatious aggression, which is laughable for a dwarf state.
