[00:00:00] and Jülle Madise will then talk about what she
[00:00:55] news time again. Ülle Madise will be sworn in as the President of the Republic
[00:00:58] today at 14:15. The elected President Ülle Madise will arrive
[00:01:02] with her spouse at Kadriorg Presidential Chancellery, where they
[00:01:05] will be welcomed by President Alar Karis and Sirje Karis. From there, they will proceed
[00:01:09] together to the square in front of the Riigikogu building. President Alar Karis
[00:01:12] will greet the Guard Battalion and the Guard of Honour lined up on the Castle Square,
[00:01:16] and the presidents will proceed to Toompea Castle. At 15:00,
[00:01:19] Alar Karis will deliver a speech, the elected President Ülle Madise will take
[00:01:22] the oath of office and deliver her first speech as president.
[00:01:26] The oath-taking and speeches can be watched live on the National Broadcasting
[00:01:30] Corporation's connection. Indeed, Ülle
[00:01:33] Madise takes office today as the President of Estonia,
[00:01:36] and Vilja Kiisler, a journalist from Eesti Päevaleht and Delfi, spoke about the new
[00:01:40] president and her future on the Television program. In the case of Ülle
[00:01:43] Madise, it should be highlighted first and foremost that she was elected already
[00:01:47] in the first round of the Riigikogu with a rather convincing majority of votes. This
[00:01:50] is undoubtedly a pretty good position to start from.
[00:01:53] She comes from the position of Chancellor of Justice, where she dealt with a very wide range of topics,
[00:01:57] so if she says that she is
[00:02:01] up to date with Estonian life, then she is not lying, and
[00:02:05] it seems to me that as Chancellor of Justice, she often
[00:02:08] had to restrain herself, because she actually had this inner
[00:02:12] urge to speak about societal issues more broadly,
[00:02:15] and the presidential office
[00:02:16] undoubtedly gives her that
[00:02:19] opportunity. In August, Estonian goods exports increased
[00:02:23] by 10% year-on-year, Statistics Estonia announced. Estonia
[00:02:25] exported goods worth almost 1.5 billion euros, while
[00:02:29] imports amounted to over 1.8 billion euros.
[00:02:33] The trade deficit was 360 million euros.
[00:02:36] According to Statistics Estonia, the growth in imports was mainly due to
[00:02:39] an increase in the import of mineral products, especially motor fuels.
[00:02:42] Motor fuel imports grew by 67%
[00:02:46] year-on-year, mainly due to rising oil prices on the world market.
[00:02:49] Estonia's main foreign trade partners
[00:02:52] in August were Finland, Latvia, and Lithuania. The most exported
[00:02:56] goods were electrical equipment.
[00:02:59] Police caught 10 Sudanese citizens
[00:03:02] who were illegally in Estonia again in the Nõmme district of Tallinn yesterday evening. Yesterday evening around
[00:03:06] half past seven, the police received a report of two men on Valdeku Street. On the spot,
[00:03:10] it turned out that the men were illegally in Estonia and there were more people
[00:03:13] hiding in the area. The police started a search, which included
[00:03:17] service dogs, drones, and rescue workers. Eight more
[00:03:21] men were found in a nearby forest, who tried to escape from the police.
[00:03:24] One of the men injured his hand while fleeing and was taken
[00:03:27] to the hospital. After first aid, he was also taken
[00:03:30] to the detention center. All ten men lacked a legal basis
[00:03:34] to be in Estonia, and only one had an identity
[00:03:37] document with him. Abroad. Six
[00:03:41] civilians were killed in Russia's latest air attacks on Ukrainian
[00:03:44] cities. In Kharkiv, a grocery store was attacked, killing three and
[00:03:48] injuring 20 people. Among the injured are also two
[00:03:51] children. Kharkiv Prosecutor's Office was also hit. But
[00:03:55] no one was injured there. Also, a thermal power plant was attacked
[00:03:58] despite the so-called energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine,
[00:04:01] which US President Donald Trump announced
[00:04:05] yesterday.
[00:04:07] NATO will respond very quickly to any kind of Russian attack on the territory
[00:04:11] of a NATO member state, said NATO's Supreme Allied Commander Europe
[00:04:14] Alexis Krineke at the Warsaw Security
[00:04:17] Conference.
[00:04:25] We win this in deterrence and we win it by showing our strength and we win it by
[00:04:29] showing our unity. uh behind that strength uh, so I hope
[00:04:32] the day never comes where we have to respond, because we're going to keep them on their heels before they
[00:04:36] even think about taking a move against our
[00:04:38] alliance.
[00:04:42] Russia interfered in the UK's decade-old Brexit vote,
[00:04:45] said UK Prime Minister Andy
[00:04:48] Burnham. I asked
[00:04:51] the question coming into Downing Street, well was there interference in the
[00:04:55] uh 2016 referendum from Russia and I've had the clear answer that yes
[00:04:59] there was. "and these things are important now to put
[00:05:02] clearly on the record and I
[00:05:05] believe help voters in Germany and France
[00:05:08] understand that some of this politics is in..."
[00:05:12] instigated via our enemies,
[00:05:15] namely Russia. I think we've been too much on the back foot on that
[00:05:19] actually, and we haven't informed people sufficiently about the extent to
[00:05:22] which people are are seeking to um to disrupt the political
[00:05:26] process from overseas.
[00:05:30] Tens of thousands of people demonstrated in Brussels against the European Union's weak
[00:05:34] climate policy. According to the police, there were
[00:05:37] 45,000 demonstrators. According to the organizers, however, as many as
[00:05:41] 60,000. The demonstrators presented five demands, including
[00:05:44] higher taxation of fuel companies and an end to fossil fuel
[00:05:47] subsidies. They also demanded a just transition
[00:05:51] to an environmentally friendly society and greater international
[00:05:54] climate cooperation.
[00:05:59] putting more trees in the cities, stopping concreting
[00:06:02] everywhere, well there are a lot of measures, insulating buildings more,
[00:06:05] reducing CO2 consumption
[00:06:08] especially with transport, so also investing.
[00:06:16] We continue with the climate topic and talk about today's weather. Today it is mainly
[00:06:20] cloudy, with clearings around the Gulf of Finland and in Southern Estonia.
[00:06:23] It will rain and the precipitation will be occasionally heavy, there may also be
[00:06:27] thunder in the morning. The wind will be variable from 1 to 7 m/s on the North coast,
[00:06:30] East and Northeast wind 7-13 m/s, with gusts
[00:06:33] up to 18 m/s. The air temperature will be
[00:06:37] between 8 and 13 degrees
[00:10:34] starting today, well, our new era starts, yes, indeed, I continue with the same
[00:10:37] tone, our new era truly begins because Ülle
[00:10:41] Madise takes office today as the President of the Republic of Estonia at 14:40,
[00:10:44] there will be a live broadcast
[00:10:47] on our national broadcasting channel as well, so you can all be part of it, and
[00:10:51] from the portal or ETV or ETV2 everyone will indeed be part of it and...
[00:10:55] "the radio news will also broadcast it, but we
[00:10:58] are still talking about television besides Alar Karis
[00:11:02] leaving and Ülle Madise
[00:12:06] wheelchair users, even just to get into this TV building and there are many
[00:12:10] buildings and situations where
[00:12:13] people in wheelchairs cannot get to where they would really like to go. This morning here
[00:12:17] in the TV building we will also make an attempt and ask if the situation has improved a little
[00:12:20] here in recent years or rather not, and how in public buildings.
[00:12:55] Today is that important day, October 12th. Alar Karis's
[00:12:59] term as President of the Republic of Estonia ends and Ülle Madise's
[00:13:03] term begins. Vilja Kiisler is invited to our morning television today, good
[00:13:06] morning. Hello! And then we will do a small
[00:13:09] retrospective of the so-called best and perhaps
[00:13:13] not so good moments of Alar Karis's presidency and briefly at the
[00:13:16] end of the interview also, what we expect from Ülle
[00:13:20] Madise. Let's start with those slightly worse moments,
[00:13:24] during Alar Karis's term, yes, let's start
[00:13:27] with the worse ones, let's start with foreign policy.
[00:13:30] Alar Karis is the kind of president who has liked to present himself
[00:13:34] as a great foreign policy thinker and
[00:13:37] a proponent of an independent foreign policy, but unfortunately it has not
[00:13:40] turned out very well, so if we recall everything that
[00:13:44] began in the public sphere with the Kazakhstan scandal,
[00:13:48] where there were some embarrassing moments
[00:13:51] and then quite a few interviews given to foreign media,
[00:13:55] where President Alar Karis on the topic of the war
[00:13:58] in Ukraine was either inappropriately silent or
[00:14:02] presented ideas that caused a great deal of public
[00:14:05] backlash and did not find any particular
[00:14:09] justification here at home, then it is actually a little funny
[00:14:13] to think back to how he most recently also told ERR that his
[00:14:17] hands were somewhat tied in foreign policy and he would have liked
[00:14:20] to pursue more foreign policy, but was seemingly not allowed. Let's listen to what
[00:14:24] he himself said about the Kazakhstan visit, there was also
[00:14:27] no very specific statement, so rather analysts have
[00:14:31] said that he actually couldn't justify the situation very well. Let's
[00:14:34] listen to that moment. The visit to Kazakhstan has
[00:14:37] somehow been exaggerated, there
[00:14:41] was nothing like what we read in the newspaper. This is indeed a moment where
[00:14:44] you are a little disappointed or perplexed as to why
[00:14:48] such a thing is written, because
[00:14:50] the President delivers his speeches exactly as
[00:14:54] the President thinks the speech is reasonable to make.
[00:14:58] The nuance then was that there were two different
[00:15:01] signals from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but
[00:15:04] the ambassador on site probably knew the situation best
[00:15:07] and that's why it was rephrased
[00:15:10] for the university as I considered it important
[00:15:13] at that moment.
[00:15:16] well, a proper explanation as to why it happened that way, somehow still did
[00:15:20] not come. From this concrete explanation, it also emerges that
[00:15:23] Alar Karis did not actually accept criticism, that he
[00:15:27] actually still has not understood afterwards that something went
[00:15:30] wrong in foreign policy communication,
[00:15:33] and that's a bit of a shame, because now that
[00:15:36] he says his hands were somehow tied and he was not allowed to pursue that
[00:15:40] soft line that he supposedly represented, then the question arises
[00:15:44] that if public feedback is
[00:15:46] critical and even expresses a lot of
[00:15:50] confusion, then one would expect that things would be clarified
[00:15:54] at home, that if there is a black box between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
[00:15:57] and Kadriorg, then the president should somehow
[00:16:00] explain
[00:16:03] what his position is, but when he came home from Kazakhstan, then
[00:16:07] actually nothing came out but such an
[00:16:10] ambiguous "well, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would need more resources," but what he
[00:16:14] actually meant by his statement did not come, and
[00:16:17] this is not an isolated incident, but actually
[00:16:21] a pattern, that he gave quite strange interviews abroad about Ukraine,
[00:16:24] and when asked about them at home afterwards, what
[00:16:28] his position ultimately was, then no
[00:16:31] explanations came, and it left a very strange impression on me at first, when
[00:16:35] it slipped through in one interview that "well, I never give
[00:16:37] all the interviews that are asked for," so "well, I don't know, that sounds just like
[00:16:41] truancy," isn't being known abroad and giving interviews
[00:16:45] the president's job? And now it turned out that the president has indeed given
[00:16:48] interviews, but the media has not covered them, meaning it still
[00:16:51] emerges from this that the media is to blame that the president has failed
[00:16:54] in foreign policy, this does not actually leave a very good impression. Let's
[00:16:58] also take domestic policy, the previous prime minister Kaja Kallas and the car tax were
[00:17:02] those, there he supposedly showed backbone
[00:17:04] or domestically,
[00:17:07] "actually Alar Karis was such a president who didn't scold many political parties
[00:17:11] in every speech, well there's a certain audience that
[00:17:14] expects that, but there were two things he couldn't stand, Kaja Kallas and
[00:17:18] the car tax, and in that sense it was perhaps quite
[00:17:21] strange to hear how he was one of the first to demand Kaja
[00:17:25] Kallas's resignation as prime minister after
[00:17:27] the East deliveries scandal, but we are a parliamentary state,
[00:17:31] the President is not necessarily the one who should say that the prime minister
[00:17:35] should resign, there were enough people saying it without him."
[00:17:37] enough, and it seemed to me that in relations with Kaja Kallas
[00:17:40] a certain antipathy also played a role, that Kaja Kallas was
[00:17:44] very well-known internationally, accepted, she was known
[00:17:47] abroad, her word counted, well, Alar Karis's did not,
[00:17:51] he was not really noticed abroad and his
[00:17:55] own role in what he then is
[00:17:58] as a foreign policy maker did not at all coincide with
[00:18:02] how it appeared and how he then imagined it. Let's listen again to what he himself
[00:18:05] said. "If I were Prime Minister, I would have probably
[00:18:09] reacted faster and made a clearer decision and
[00:18:13] that problem would have disappeared, but it wouldn't have
[00:18:16] escalated to the extent that we are talking about it today. I also
[00:18:20] talk to my foreign colleagues, not only at barbecue parties, but also with my
[00:18:24] foreign colleagues, this topic comes up immediately, and even if it doesn't
[00:18:27] come up, you see that it is still
[00:18:31] somewhere between us. What is your advice to the Prime Minister? My
[00:18:34] advice to the Prime Minister is to make that decision..." she makes it
[00:18:38] herself and and and
[00:18:41] maybe I would recommend
[00:18:43] coming to Kadriorg
[00:18:47] to begin with, and whether with papers or without, to talk about this topic, she should resign
[00:18:50] in your opinion, concretely again this is her decision, but if I were in her
[00:18:54] shoes, I would have taken that step a long time ago,
[00:18:58] well, it's a concrete sentence in itself, but it
[00:19:01] questions whether the president should say that, it seemed to me that Kaja Kallas and he still had
[00:19:05] a certain antipathy towards each other. He also
[00:19:08] criticized Kallas on several occasions and it was striking that the reality
[00:19:12] behind it was that Kallas was unsympathetic to him, because
[00:19:16] when the leader of the Reform Party and the head of government changed, then
[00:19:19] after that his criticism of the Reform Party and the prime minister
[00:19:23] somehow softened, and it seemed to me
[00:19:26] that in relations with Kaja Kallas a certain envy played a role
[00:19:30] on the one hand, that Kaja Kallas is so well-known abroad and he is not, and on the other
[00:19:34] hand, perhaps also the fact that Kaja Kallas is a woman, because..." "if
[00:19:37] you remember how he criticized, praised
[00:19:41] Merz, who at that time was not yet the Chancellor, and thought that
[00:19:44] Merz would be suitable for that position because he is a tall man and stands
[00:19:48] out and is presentable, well, almost two meters, I
[00:19:52] don't know if there is such a woman who would necessarily stand out with that and whether it would even
[00:19:55] be necessarily necessary that we judge by height, that a certain
[00:19:59] "Uncle Heino" undertone still slipped through Karis's speech at times,
[00:20:02] of course it was said jokingly about Merz, but sometimes
[00:20:06] a joke reveals..." "what kind of person he is and how he
[00:20:09] thinks. Let's also bring out the positive side, for example
[00:20:12] when I think about that same Kazakhstan visit, he had many
[00:20:15] cultural figures with him, many educational figures, he went with a very large delegation, so
[00:20:19] that part of him, that culture and education was dear
[00:20:23] to his heart, he stood for that, uh,
[00:20:26] that is part of Alar Karis's mild and pleasant
[00:20:30] image, I would say, such mildness and pleasantness was
[00:20:33] what he realized as the patron of the Year of the Book, he even
[00:20:37] had his own program on ERR,
[00:20:40] which was worth watching, undoubtedly, because interesting guests came there, not necessarily
[00:20:44] because Karis was a great literary expert,
[00:20:47] he unfortunately did not convince me of that.
[00:20:50] "but as the patron of the Year of the Book, he stood out, he put reading
[00:20:54] at the center, considering that Karis has a scientific background, he
[00:20:57] always emphasized the importance of science and education, uh,
[00:21:00] that is undoubtedly important, but these are topics with which it is not very
[00:21:04] possible to stand out much, however they form a certain
[00:21:08] whole, part of a whole, and part
[00:21:11] of a whole is undoubtedly also his artificial
[00:21:15] intelligence enthusiasm, we will talk about that in a moment, but
[00:21:18] let's listen, we just took one small excerpt from that Ministry of Literature, right,
[00:21:22] his, as you said, he did have his own show,
[00:21:24] as it were, it appeared when I
[00:21:28] was a student and
[00:21:30] and and you read a little more as a student
[00:21:34] when you have time, but maybe another reason is that for me,
[00:21:37] since I come from a wooden house
[00:21:41] with a shared kitchen and and then
[00:21:45] a certain dream was also to finally get such a nice
[00:21:48] nice apartment, where I never... really got to, but but that
[00:21:52] dream was completely there back then, that I could get into a proper
[00:21:56] apartment, where everything is included and you don't have to bring wood with a sled
[00:22:00] for the stove and so on and so forth, which
[00:22:02] Matti Hunt has written in the book
[00:22:05] "Autumn Palms", but did you notice, the president mainly talked
[00:22:09] about himself, not about that book, so it wasn't
[00:22:12] really a substantive discussion, certainly, but the guests were substantive,
[00:22:15] mhm, and then all that education and science topic certainly suited him,
[00:22:19] uh, and... he also liked that somewhat naive, sincere,
[00:22:23] well, I wouldn't want to say infantile AI enthusiasm,
[00:22:26] with which he actually walked in President Ilves's footsteps,
[00:22:29] if you remember, Toomas Hendrik Ilves was the one who once
[00:22:32] initiated the Tiger Leap and well then Karis has been the one who has
[00:22:36] wished that Estonia would not fall behind
[00:22:39] in AI topics. Let's now take Ülle Madise, her
[00:22:43] term as President of the Republic of Estonia begins today at 14:40,
[00:22:46] all this will happen and ERR will broadcast it too, what...
[00:22:50] we could expect from her, drawing conclusions based on what positions
[00:22:54] she has held so far and how she has acted.
[00:22:57] In the case of Ülle Madise, it should be highlighted first and foremost that she was elected
[00:23:00] already in the first round of the Riigikogu with a rather convincing majority
[00:23:03] of votes. This is undoubtedly a pretty good position to start from.
[00:23:07] She comes from the position of Chancellor of Justice, where she dealt with a very wide range of topics,
[00:23:11] meaning if she says that she is familiar with Estonian life, then
[00:23:15] she is not lying, and it seems to me that
[00:23:19] as Chancellor of Justice, she often had to restrain herself, because she
[00:23:22] actually had that inner urge to speak
[00:23:25] about societal issues more broadly, and the presidential office
[00:23:29] undoubtedly gives her that opportunity, and I imagine
[00:23:32] that if she has been in very strict frameworks before taking office,
[00:23:36] she has had to give the impression that she did not at
[00:23:39] all want to become president, I think she did, deep down she has been preparing for this for many
[00:23:43] years and came to meet the parties,
[00:23:45] as a non-partisan candidate, then
[00:23:48] she has actually prepared for this and
[00:23:51] she will certainly find her voice as president,
[00:23:55] at least I hope so, and
[00:23:58] uh, she could be convincing, as she is a person who has a pretty strong
[00:24:02] backbone and has firm positions, and I hope that
[00:24:05] there will be a bang from this gun too, because the president's role should not
[00:24:08] necessarily be boring, in Karis's case, that boredom somewhat
[00:24:12] emerged, the president should not necessarily be mild and pleasant, she
[00:24:16] should have positions that invite society to discuss and
[00:24:19] co-think, I see a lot of potential in Ülle Madise
[00:24:23] to do that. With potential perhaps already thinking about a second
[00:24:26] term. Paavo Nõgene on Viker Raadio, I listened to the program, his
[00:24:29] chief of staff said that he really thinks that 10 years could be that time
[00:24:33] already now and that is completely possible, because let's look
[00:24:36] at the so-called passport. Ülle Madis is a young person and it would be
[00:24:40] a great pity if she had to retire, so to speak, after five years, we
[00:24:44] in Estonia unfortunately do not have such an opportunity
[00:24:47] for the president to find another suitable position. Look at Kersti Kaljulaid's
[00:24:51] fate, it would be a great pity if a person at such a
[00:24:55] busy, intellectually peak form,
[00:24:58] had to leave an office that she knows well how to hold, so
[00:25:02] I wish her strength, hopefully for two terms, exactly, thank you, Vilja Kiisler.
[00:25:25] will be sworn in as the President of the Republic today. At 14:15,
[00:25:29] the elected President Ülle Madise will arrive with her spouse at Kadriorg,

[00:26:00] vahendusel.
[00:26:03] Yesterday evening, the police once again apprehended 10 Sudanese citizens
[00:26:06] illegally residing in Estonia in the Nõmme district of Tallinn. Yesterday evening
[00:26:10] around 7:30 p.m., the police received a report about two men on Valdeku
[00:26:13] Street. On the spot, it turned out that the men were illegally residing in Estonia
[00:26:17] and there were more people hiding in the area. The police launched
[00:26:20] a search, which involved service dogs, drones, and
[00:26:23] rescue workers. Eight more men were found in a nearby forest,
[00:26:27] who tried to escape from the police. One of the men injured
[00:26:31] his hand while escaping and was taken to the hospital. After first aid, he was also taken
[00:26:34] to a detention center. All ten men lacked
[00:26:37] a legal basis to stay in Estonia, and only one had
[00:26:40] an identity document with him.
[00:26:44] Russia continues to attack Ukrainian cities with drones and missiles,
[00:26:48] but Ukraine is increasingly launching counterattacks.
[00:26:51] In recent years, Ukrainians have significantly increased their capabilities
[00:26:55] to attack targets deep within Russian territory. In the program Ukraine
[00:26:58] Studio, Air Force Chief of Staff Colonel Freddy Karu explained
[00:27:02] how Ukraine is trying to weaken Russia's warfare
[00:27:05] with counterattacks. They have
[00:27:09] significantly developed and improved this capability
[00:27:12] in recent years and also made it more massive, so
[00:27:15] that, uh, on many days they are already attacking
[00:27:19] more than the Russians are attacking their territory,
[00:27:22] and unlike the Russian Federation, which often
[00:27:26] bombs cities, and then the Ukrainians continue
[00:27:29] to maintain the line that... all military
[00:27:33] targets, such as various airbases,
[00:27:35] command points, but they have this other bigger
[00:27:39] idea always behind attacking defense industry
[00:27:42] enterprises and also those from which the Russian Federation, so to speak, makes
[00:27:46] money. In the third quarter of this year, the number
[00:27:50] of registered unemployed in Estonia fell to 38, which is
[00:27:53] 13% less than a year ago. According to the Unemployment Insurance Fund,
[00:27:57] the number of unemployed was last so low at the beginning of
[00:28:00] 2020. At the same time, the number of jobs increased by more
[00:28:04] than a quarter over the year, reaching an average of
[00:28:06] 5250. Most new job offers came
[00:28:10] from manufacturing, trade, and
[00:28:13] construction. Competition for jobs has also decreased. While last year there were
[00:28:16] an average of 11 registered unemployed people per open job,
[00:28:20] this year that number is seven. According to Priit Rammul, a member of the board
[00:28:24] of the Unemployment Insurance Fund, finding a job still depends
[00:28:27] on a person's skills and the field in which the job
[00:28:30] is sought.
[00:28:32] And now news from abroad: NATO will respond very quickly to any kind of Russian
[00:28:36] attack on the territory of a NATO member state, said NATO's Supreme Allied Commander
[00:28:40] Europe Alexis Krinkević at the Warsaw Security
[00:28:44] Conference.
[00:28:48] And I'll prevent it from happening to begin with, we win this in
[00:28:52] deterrence and we win it by showing our strength and we win it by showing
[00:28:55] our unity behind that strength, so I hope
[00:28:59] the day never comes where we have to respond because we're going to keep them on their heel.
[00:29:07] tens of thousands of people protested in Brussels against the European Union's
[00:29:10] weak climate policy. According to police estimates, there were
[00:29:13] 45,000 demonstrators, according to the organizers, as many as
[00:29:17] 60,000. The demonstrators presented five demands, including
[00:29:21] higher taxation of fuel companies and an end to fossil fuel
[00:29:24] subsidies. A fair transition to
[00:29:28] an environmentally friendly society and greater international
[00:29:31] climate cooperation were also demanded.

[00:30:44] symbolic events, its traditions, and
