(MENAFN) Prime Minister Kaja Kallas has claimed that Estonia won't be able to handle a potential new influx of refugees from Ukraine and that she expects other European Union countries, like Finland, to take them in. She claimed on Tuesday in a radio interview that Tallinn and Helsinki have already reached a tentative agreement on the matter.
Since the commencement of the conflict with Russia, Kallas' country has been generous to Ukrainians, and she expressed delight in it, but she also added: “everything has its limit, and once we are no longer able to accept people because we ran out of housing and jobs, then others will do more.”
Kallas threw in. As a result, Estonian authorities is going to advise arriving Ukrainians to travel to other countries, such as Finland, “we talked to Finland about the fact that we are no longer able to help refugees from Ukraine, and the Finns said they can accommodate more people.”
Despite the deteriorating situation in Ukraine, the prime minister reported that there has not yet been a spike in new arrivals to Estonia. In order "to create living conditions there, so that people would not leave," she declared, the government is giving aid to Kiev.
