Some notes concerning Estonia

On the occasion of the Finnish “Independence Day” celebrated by the reaction, we reaffirm our commitment to proletarian internationalism and publish the following translation of a text sent to us. The writer has approved some minor adjustments and notes for the international reader.

Estonia is a country in the Southern coast of the Gulf of Finland with some 1.3 million people. In Finland, the country is mostly known for its migrant workers in Finland, especially in the capital area around Helsinki, and also for its “booze tourism” (alcohol is much cheaper in Estonia than in Finland) and also, frankly, for its sex tourism. Culturally, Tallinn Old Town is well known. The language is close to Finnish, and the nation is seen as the “younger brother” of the Finns. However, apart from trivia, the country is not well-known in Finland, even though geographically, language-wise and, especially, in the imperialist system the countries have a close relationship.

From November 15 to November 25 The 2020 Brazilian municipal elections took place in which Mayors, Vice-Mayors and City Councillors of all 5,568 cities were to be elected. Comrades in Brazil developed a tremendous campaign calling for the boycott of this electoral farce. Despite the cheap demagoguery of the various candidates that particularly now, during the heavy impact of the Corona-Pandemic in Brazil, try to traffic with the needs of the masses the Superior Electoral Court had to report that in Porto Velho, the capitol of Rondonia, only 40% of the people allowed to vote did so in the second round of the elections.

On the 5th of December, about 2000 people participated in a demonstration in Hamburg, which was against the "Rondenbarg-trial". At G20 in July 2017, there was a spontaneous demonstration on its way from the protest-camp to the city center of Hamburg. In the street of "Rondenbarg", the police attacked the demonstrators. Now some of the demonstrators should be trialed with high jail sentences, only for participating in the demo.

Teachers and kindergarten personnel are to be allowed to test themselves and one-another on Covid-19 in the future. This decision was enacted on December 4 and will be implemented in January 2021. The rapid tests are supposed to be distributed free of charge to schools and daycare centers for children. This is part of the strategy of area coverage tests for recognition of Covid-19 cases.
