Estonia has threatened Russia to install buoys in its territorial waters on Narva

If Estonia does not reach an agreement with Russia on the location of navigation buoys on Narva, the republic will place them in its territorial waters on the river. This was announced on May 29 by the head of the Estonian Interior Ministry, Igor Taro.

"If a bilateral agreement is not reached, Estonia will install buoys in its territorial waters," he said, quoted by the ERR television and radio company.

According to Taro, representatives of the European Agency for the Protection of External Borders will monitor the buoys. As noted by the TV and radio company, negotiations on this issue are currently underway with Russia, but an agreement has not yet been signed.
