Estonia plans to transfer SUVs to Ukraine who have previously been used by the country’s border guards to protect the border from the Russian Federation.
About it reports Err .
It is reported that the Estonian Police and Border Guard Department has purchased 20 new Volkswagen Touareg SUVs with a total cost of 2 million euros, 90 percent of which made EU subsidies to protect the Estonian-Russian Border Line and FRONTEX operations. New cars are much quieter and more compact than their predecessors.
The Police and Border Guard Department used vehicles in the Southern and Eastern Prefectures that were originally intended to overcome complex areas. However, with the construction of the eastern border, the road conditions have improved significantly. Therefore, the purchase of new vehicles took into account the technological innovations that need to be studied now.
“The basic price of the machine is not 100 thousand euros, because everything that is installed here manually, which is needed by the border guard – various electronic and mechanical solutions – all this costs money. Old cars will definitely be sent to Ukraine, ”said Rimet Niilus, the head of the border PPA Piusa.
Estonia has been constantly providing military assistance to Ukraine since the beginning of the full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation. Thus, in March, Ukraine officially submitted a list of military assistance per 100 million euros to Estonia, which includes drones, craft and medical equipment. Contracts for the purchase of products are already prepared for the conclusion.
Earlier, Estonia Prime Minister Kristen Michal reported that in order to strengthen Ukraine’s positions and increase pressure on Estonia, he sent 10,000 artillery ammunition and 750,000 grocery kits for Ukrainian fighters.
We will remind, the Chancellor of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Estonia Jonathan Vsevoviv stated that massive rocket firing of Ukraine resemble the bombing of London by Nazis during the Second World War.
We also reported that Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsakhkn, after the attack of the Russian army in Ukraine, on the night of Saturday, urged to strengthen military assistance to Kiev and impose more tougher sanctions on Russia.
