The UN Security Council will convene an emergency meeting tomorrow due to Russia's brazen violation of Estonian airspace. This was announced by Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna on his Facebook page, as reported by UNN.
Estonia has convened the UN Security Council to discuss Russia's recent violation of its airspace. This is the first time in 34 years that Estonia has convened the Council itself.
He emphasized that Russia is an aggressive state that ignores the UN Charter and the principles of international law, including the territorial integrity of states.
Such behavior must be given an unambiguous international assessment
Margus reported that the UN Security Council will convene on Monday at 10:00 AM New York time (5:00 PM Estonian time).
Estonia stands firm on the positions of international law and its allies. We will not allow Russian aggression and attempts to change borders by force to become the new norm
