Estonia's Interior Minister Igor Taro expressed on April 1, 2025, that the construction of the country's eastern border infrastructure with Russia faces persistent challenges that may prevent its full completion. The project is planned to finish by the end of 2027, yet new military and logistical issues continually arise due to the tense regional security environment, including illegal border crossings and evolving threats. The Minister also mentioned prospective amendments to the Weapons Act to simplify the process of obtaining weapons permits, reflecting concerns about defense preparedness. This reflects Estonia's ongoing efforts to enhance border security amid Russia's increased regional assertiveness and recent provocations.
