Estonia Issues Shoot-to-Kill Warning Over Russia’s ‘Little Green Men’

Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna has warned that Russia’s “little green men” attempting to breach the border with Estonia would be met with deadly force in an interview with Polish media.

“Little green men” refers to unmarked Russian soldiers during Russia’s 2014 annexation of Crimea who wore green uniforms without insignia to conceal official involvement.

Commenting on recent border incidents with Russia – including one in October when Russians without insignia were spotted on the border – Tsahkna told Polish outlet o2.pl that Estonian troops will “shoot them” if they do cross the border.

“Let me put it bluntly: If the little green men ever cross our border, we will shoot them. Those will be the consequences; there’s no arguing about it. If Russia isn’t sure we’ll actually react, they might test us,” Tsahkna said, as reported by another Polish outlet, Onet.
