Country Quote by Kersti Kaljulaid

“Sometimes I hear, particularly from Russia, that we simply hate Russia and don't like to co-operate, that we are hysterical about the risks. But this is totally untrue. We would greatly benefit economically if our neighbour was a democratic, developing country.” quote by Kersti Kaljulaid — Download Open image
