The Estonian Ministry of Health calls a Russian diplomat after the arson of the Milrem Robotics plant

Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna said that the department intends to summon Russian Charge d'Affaires Kamran Abilov in connection with the arson of a defense plant in Tallinn, in which Latvians are suspected.

Earlier, the Estonian television and radio company ERR reported that on the night of August 15 in Tallinn, a building used by the defense company Milrem Robotics, which supplies THeMIS unmanned ground vehicles to Ukraine, caught fire. In mid-September, Latvia handed over three arson suspects to Estonia. With the permission of the court, three Latvian citizens were taken into custody.

On his page on the social network X, the head of the Estonian Foreign Ministry said that the arson was sabotage.

“In response to this, today the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs will call the Charge d’Affaires of Russia,” Tsahkna wrote.
