A week before NATO Foreign Ministers meet in Tallinn, local residents and guests were invited on 16 April to spend a day discussing and learning about NATO as well as Estonia’s political and military contribution to the Alliance.
‘NATO Day’, which took place at Tallinn’s Vabaduse (“Freedom”) Square, engaged the public in discussions on NATO's future, current operations and new threats, such as cyber crime. More than 4 700 visitors had the chance to observe mine-clearing robots, a field hospital and other military equipment, and to learn about development work in crisis areas.
The event was opened by Estonian Foreign Minister Urmas Paet and with a military orchestra performance. Minister Paet said that today, Estonians can feel safer than before joining the Alliance thanks to NATO’s principle of “one for all and all for one”.
Several organizations presented their contribution to the country’s security, including the Estonian Red Cross, the Estonian Defence Forces, the Estonian Aviation Academy, the Estonian National Defence College, Estonian Public Service Academy and the Army Parachuting Club,
A rock concert with Estonian music group “Smilers” and a screening of the movie “The Afghan Star” wrapped up the day.
The event was organized in the run-up to the NATO Foreign Ministers meeting by the Estonian Atlantic Treaty Association, Estonian Ministries of Defence and of Foreign Affairs, and NATO's Public Diplomacy Division.
