Estonia promises to keep Ukrainian issue on UN Security Council agenda

"The issue of the occupation of Ukraine, in particular of Crimea, is of utmost importance now, and we will try to keep it on the agenda constantly. This is the most pressing issue," Sven Jürgenson, the Permanent Representative of Estonia to the United Nations, said in a commentary to an Ukrinform correspondent.

When asked what conflicts in Eastern Europe will be considered by the UN Security Council, Jürgenson mentioned the situations in Transnistria and Georgia.

"We also have other potential conflicts - if you look at Transnistria or the occupation of part of Georgia. But the Ukrainian issue is the most pressing one at the moment," the diplomat added. Estonia was elected as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council for two-year terms spanning 2020-2021, representing Eastern European States.
