Baltic Sea 2022

Tallinn

Protests outside the Russian embassy
The old town has the Russian embassy, which has an improvised fence in front of it, and a 24-hour police presence, but only discreetly from a vehicle at the start of the road. The fence has been adorned with information panels, telling the history of the strained relationship between Ukraine and Russia, and protest placards, and such things as blood-stained teddy-bears. Despite this, they have the audacity to fly the Russian flag above the street and just out of reach of offended passers-by. The building itself seems to be empty. The political still-life has become a tourist attraction.
