Jürgen Ligi (Reform Party) says that increasing defense spending is necessary. However, this means that the funding for other areas must be reduced.
Ligi says that all areas must scale back their aspirations. Investments must be postponed.
He has spoken with the European Union and hopes that European funds can be used for defense. This allows Estonia to save money that can be used for protection.
Ligi says that the use of euro funds needs to be reviewed. Some investments must be postponed. However, in large projects, the funds are used wisely.
No decisions have been made yet, but officials are working on it. The time is approaching when political decisions must become clear. Ligi emphasizes that some goals remain. However, the situation is urgent at the moment.
