Live at 10: Annual Foreign Policy Debate in the Riigikogu

The Estonian Riigikogu will hold an annual foreign policy debate featuring Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna and Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Marko Mihkelson.

Today, the Estonian Riigikogu will engage in a significant debate on foreign policy, with participants including Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna and the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, Marko Mihkelson. This important discussion is open to all members, who can pose up to two questions each to the presenters following their presentations. The sitting will be broadcast live on ERR and ETV2, starting at 10 AM.

The tradition of holding annual foreign policy debates in the Riigikogu has been in practice for over 30 years, beginning with the first debate on February 17, 1994. This longstanding tradition marks the importance of transparency and discourse in Estonian politics, offering a platform for elected officials to voice their concerns and insights regarding foreign relations and policy.

As international dynamics continue to shift, these annual discussions not only highlight Estonia's diplomatic objectives and strategies but also provide the public with insights into the government’s foreign policy direction. As various global challenges affect nations, Estonia's deliberations in this area are crucial for understanding its commitments and alignments on the international stage.
