From his Twitter bio: Member of European Parliament @EPPGroup 🇪🇪 @EP_Industry, @EP_Agriculture. Deputy coordinator for @EP_ArtifIntel. Former Chief of Defence of Estonia.

And if it is true, Ukraine has a better shot at winning this war than I had realized.

Riho Terra tweeted a list of what Ukraine needs from us a few hours before tweeting the thread in the OP: ammunition, all arms air defense system, anti-UAV defense system, heavy weapons, early warning systems for missile attacks, body armour and other PPE.
