The Russians Are Coming: Estonia's National Militia
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 чер 2024
- Since Russia’s involvement in the Ukraine conflict in 2014, nearby Baltic states have been on high alert. Estonia, the smallest country in the region, signed a military equipment deal worth 138 million euros ($147 million) last December - the largest procurement in its history.
The country also has a growing militia, known as the Estonian Defense League, made up of 15,000 volunteers. They take part in war scenario exercises, with many of the members keeping firearms of their own at home. Should Estonia's sovereignty be threatened, the militia will be called upon to defend it at all costs.
The organization's membership has risen by 10 percent since Russia annexed Crimea in 2014, partly based on national Estonian fears that Russia will attempt to breach its eastern border. NATO has increased its fighter jets and ground troops in the country, as a show of what they say is support to its ally, yet Russia has claimed this is "provocative" and held its own military exercises near the border.
VICE News follows 800 members of the Estonian Defense League on a combat training exercise to find out how they are preparing for a possible confrontation. We also meet with US NATO air support and speak to ethnic Russians in the Estonian border city of Narva.

Loll
I thought exactly the same thing
In the end, Stalin was very similar to a tsar.
Classic nostalgia
Gabriele Scalise YEP! He had very powerful authority and sweeping powers over the Soviet Union and the Russian people as well as the citizens of the Eastern European countries he conquered from the Third Reich. It's simply insane how much power he possessed!
Their English is surprisingly good
Adam Hall Estonia is quite developed which explains why even most of the russians are quite moderate there.
Adam Hall in all baltic countries english is second language in school. later from 6 grade you choose your third language: French, german, russian. so ewery baltic people speak at least in two languages in lithuania vilnius ewen 3 -4 languages: lithuanian, russian, polish, english
Europeans can speak English very well, we have it in basically every European country as a mandatory language

zcribe You do know that Georgian president swore to reunite the Georgian country and conquer those 2 provinces that separated 10 years prior, yes? Not to mention, NATO and the US helped fund Georgia and military trained Georgia months before they launched an attack. Georgian President didn't think Russia would engage back on the assumption of NATO protection, but he failed to realize NATO was using Georgia to test East vs West as they were not official members of NATO.
When the facts started to show Georgians at fault, the news went dark on Georgia and only mention it slightly weeks and months later.

that guy had Stalin poster...oh boy
Attempting to be objective as possible, to all those saying that Estonia wouldn't survive for a day in a war against Russia, all you have to do is look at the Winter war of 39-40 against Finland, the Red Army at the time was under poor leadership (due to Stalin's purges of the Officer Corps) and proved to be a slow giant. Only when Russian reinforcements arrived and the Finns literally ran out of ammunition did they capitulate.
+Born2BWild As if they don't have harsh winters in Russia. Estonian winters are much milder than in most of Russia and Finland.
+pewpewpew That's the best reason for Russia to invade Estonia i've ever heard
well they didn't really capitulate. they signed an armistice
Finland had a huge teritorial advantage.
+Born2BWild the only reason USSR didn't annihilate Finland in 1944 is because Stalin wanted to finish of Germany as quickly as possible, and finns expelled the germans in the lapland war, luckily for them germans didn't have enough strength anymore to retaliate. They also ceded the second largest city in Finland to the USSR

Sorry, bro.
Estonians are great fighters. Greetings from Finland.
Good to see the formation of the Estonian militia. Now let's see the same thing happen in Latvia and Lithuania. Estonia is committing the necessary money, training time and material on their militia and within a year they will be ready to effectively defend their country.
Now the Estonian militia needs to do training operations with their professional military so they can easily integrate with them when necessary. The keys to this are integrated command structures, unit cohesiveness and training, training, training.
Perhaps the next NATO exercise in Estonia will include the Estonian militia.
Estonian Defense League (the militia) has been doing training exercises with our Defense Forces (mandatory service) and professional soldiers (those who participate in NATO missions) and NATO forces for years. This is not a year old thing.
God Bless Estonia and her people! The U.S.A. supports you!

im i the only one wondering how many people in Estonia speak English?
jingle bells Everybody
here's a chart compiled by some Czech fellow
jakubmarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/conversation-english-eurobarometer.jpg
from personal experience:
Back when I was graduating high school (2006), all but one guy who had a bit more trouble with English.
Afterwards I was in a vocational school - car technician - I'd judge 3 out of 30 to be able to hold a conversation in English.
later I went to IT (again in vocational school) - everyone knew and understood English.
old people are a lot less likely to speak it though.
jingle bells we have to study english in school
daniel dubrov can u guys speak Russian or other Slavic languages since Estonia was part of Russian Empire or Soviet Union for many years?
Evan Filemon
Most of the older generation can speak russian as it was mandatory to speak it during Soviet era. I remember what my father said about learning the language. He went to serve in red army somewhere round black sea.
And he said ''If you couldnt speak russian it was beaten into you'' everybody coming out of red army could speak russian. Also many lessons in school wer russian only.
After the 90's and when we got our independence everything has shifted to west. I would say about 90% of younger generation can speak (or atleast understand) english. Nowedays in school you have options to chose 2nd foreign language after English (English is mandatory) and quite many students pick German or French over Russian language.

Vladimir Petrov is a Russian citizen. The most of the Russian in the East-Estonia (Ida-Virumaa+Narva district) came here less than 60 years ago, average is about 45-40 years!
And the land over the Narva river there was not "the Russia". It used to be Ingermanland where the Ingerians (Vod+Häme Finns etc) lived for the two thousand years. At least. In 1917 there lived about 130 000 Ingeri-Finns, now less than 10 000! You know why? Comrade Stalin, whose picture the insolent fellow had on the wall, deported them already before the Second World War. Rest of them were sent to the Siberia after the war!

this is a beautiful piece.I really love the population,they seem to be a very honest outreaching people,sade tht they are torn by their own identity.I pray things get resolutions.
So Russians living in Estonia, being disproportionately represented in parliament, ie a vast MINORITY, complain about not being represented adequately, yet living in another country that is NOT Russia? I don't get why they would even think they can be upset by this? That would be like myself living in Italy, being Greek, complaining the Italians don't listen to what I say? How very odd!
They are hypocrites.
Typical Russian behavior
Estonia...Latvia...Lithuania....Putin has pissed off a lot of old Soviet bloc countries!! And now Sweden and Finland are joining NATO!
They have been there since the times of the Soviet Union it’s their land
Dear Russians, if Russia is so "great", then why not go back to where you were sent from? Hmmmmmm?? If Russia is so "great", then why so many Russians coming to America and not returning home, staying ILLEGALLY and risking permanent removal and lifetime banishment on re-entry?
Ask any russian, if their not sarcastic, they hate the govt and arent saying that russia is great. Tf are u talking about? Ir is this a joke idk
@@novydasb4660 That's fine. But what about all the "Russians" that were forced away in to non-Russian lands, but ultimately claim the land for Russia? Commie Russia sent out a lot of "Seeders" to live in foreign lands and have babies to gain political clout.
Russia...don't touch Estonia,Lithuania or Latvia.
The Albanian Internet Warrior or anything That is alive like Ukrine or Nordics or baltics
Milan Okay why would Russia mobilize their entire army to invade the Baltics? That would be a logistical nightmare.
Milan You said 3 million soldiers would storm the border. Besides why do you have to worry about American military presence if Estonia doesnt have to worry about Russia?
What is Albania gonna do if it does?
I live on Estonia :(
Werent the chinese Pilot which were trained by the Americans During ww2 in china called the flying tigers?
2sp00ky4m3 # The Flying Tigers were Americans from the U.S. Army Air Core, U.S. Navy and U.S. Marines, who volunteered to fight the Japanese alongside the Chinese Air Force.
2sp00ky4m3 # those were American volunteers plus they have one p40 at the Pensacola navy base fromthat squadron
It is also a old nickname for the SWAT team in Hong Kong, trained by the SAS back in the 80's when HK was still a British colony. Now they are officially called S.D.U (Special Duty Unit) but still being nicknamed as Flying Tigers
No, the flying tigers were american volunteers
We'll all fight shoulder to shoulder with Estonia if Putin dares.....we'll fight to the death!
Estonia reminds me alot more of countries like Finland, than soviet countries
Estonia will not be left behind to be sliced up by Ivans, much love from the United States
Not much different what russians did.
U nato trashbags are on the same par with these soviets soldiers
i never thought they could speak english this good, they are even better understandable then the average person in the U.K
I mean no wonder man I have learned it since 3rd grade and schools are good and hard here. Basicially best education in Europe. And really like... English? THATS SO EASY TO LEARN. Try German or something now thats hard. Or Estonian even harder. Also some people literally think we live in dirt huts still
It sickens me to read some of the comments here where people find it normal that if a portion of the citizens speak another language it gives them the right to become another country or invade them..... if everyone would think like this...... damn you can call the US, Ireland... Or Belgium, France or Netherlands..... djeeezus some people need some education.
16:00 AC/DC Starts playing and the American's are like "Mission time!" Classic.
