Reports claim firm partly owned by Kaja Kallas’s husband has carried on working in Russia since Ukraine war

between the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the following November.

The budget committee chair, Urmas Reinsalu of the opposition party Isamaa, described Kallas’s behaviour as unprecedented and called for her resignation. Kallas, a former lawyer and the daughter of Estonia’s former prime minister Siim Kallas, is credited with boosting the Baltic nation’s international stature, and publicly chided the French president, Emmanuel Macron, for picking up the phone to the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, in the early days of the war.

While Estonia’s internal security service says Hallik’s business activities do not violate sanctions, public confidence in the prime minister has taken a hit.
