Description:

The monument may have been relocated and the soldiers reburied, but the dispute over the Bronze Soldier in the Estonian capital of Tallinn has not yet been laid to rest. At least one of the demonstrators protesting against the monument's removal in April remains in jail.

there were about 2000 "protesters". Do you know how many Russians are living in Estonia or Tallinn alone?

It's more like: "If you do not respect your country and the language and the people, then you can go back to your own country. Not fck up other peoples country."

Indeed, a right to protest, but not loot. If you are not given the right to protest at that time, then well, its your own fault. Oh and near the statue, the police asked the Russians many times to disperse but they didn't. You cannot allow demonstrations that are provocative and insulting.

In the beginning of the war, there were no german troops in Estonia. But still SU moved its forces in and killed its political and cultural leaders. And when the Germans indeed invade Estonia, the Russians were fleeing without a fight. Do you really think that looting and rioting is honoring the memory?

Indeed. But should I remind you that Russia and SU are two different things? As most of your people say. So it's funny. If we talk about the good things the SU did (like fighting with the Nazis) then Russia=SU. But if we talk about bad things, like GULAGS or deportations or occupation, then Russia /= SU. Shall I remind you that SU was in allience with Germany in the start of the war?

These people who were 'protesting' were nothing but hoodlums who couldnt care less about the cause. Even if the police just stood by and allowed for the Russians to destroy and loot the city, the Russian media would still complain about Estonia.

All news is biased, the BBC, FOX, CNN, whatever, they all present it from a certain viewpoint. No one is telling you that you have to believe it, so watch them all and make your own mind up.

Yeah, Russia should have left you to be taken by the Nazis and used as slaves, you ungratful shits. Millions of Russian soldiers soldiers died fighting to free Estonia from certain destruction under the Nazis, and this is how their memory is honoured?

Only countries that deserve EU membership--Germany, Spain, France, UK, Portugal, Italy, Denmark, Scandanavian countries, and small countries (such as Luxembourg), and rest of W. Europe. Every other country was political decision, or admitted due to lack of labour in state such as UK. Come on..Bulgaria and Romania? Are you kidding me?
