Overview:
This week’s posters were primarily focused on politics. An official channel posted twice about NATO, stating that after the Cold War, it is now a useless treaty, and after 2022, it has become the reason for the rapid militarisation of Europe; it also blamed NATO for considerable casualties over the past few years. Focusing on local matters, posters spoke about the new taxes on pensions and how this shows that the government is no longer a democracy, as well as voting rights for non-citizen residents, Russian news being repeated over Estonian news channels, which violates the ban, and the change of the language of instruction to Estonian, and how it is a tactic for humiliating those who do not speak Estonian fluently.
