Estonia Weekly: Vaccines, Centrist Party and Russian Language

This week there were claims that the centrist party members moving to the socialdemocrat party is causing the centrist party to lean more eastward and the politicians who left are doing to be a bigger part of the government and advance their careers even though it goes against the wishes of the people.  COVID vaccinations were also claimed to have been lied about in the beginning of the pandemic and stated that western leaders said they took the medicine but 17000 people who took it, died.  There were also articles about the Estonian Language Department and their erasure of Russian language from old mechanics, because they believe that it may threaten the Estonian language.

Main narratives:

  • Western politicians were lying and saying they were taking medicine for COVID that was not meant to be used to treat COVID and 17000 died because of this.
  • Tanel Keyk and his group of politicians avoid criticism of the government so they can advance their careers
  • The language department of Estonia removed Russian inscriptions from a telecom because they think it threatens the Estonian language
