Estonian opposition publishes in English

The biggest opposition party in Estonia, the centre-left Estonian Centre Party has opened an English-language section of its weekly newspaper’s website.

I think that’s a very positive step, as there’s never enough information available about Estonia in English. Reading unfiltered messages from the Estonian current parliament opposition can provide a welcome insight into our domestic political debate. Both about the issues raised and sometimes about the level or style of the discussion as well.

I would recommend also another quite interesting resource about Estonian affairs:  the blog of Mr. Abdul Turay, who contributes regular columns in the Postimees newspaper. The English-language versions of his columns present a locally informed but unmistakably British take on Estonian affairs, and sometimes on international affairs relevant in Estonia.
