[00:00:00] That's how you keep your word, Signora Marquise. Secret
[00:00:03] smuggling for the front, arrests in gilded
[00:00:06] corridors, alliances for which you will have to pay dearly.
[00:00:09] I decided to go to the Civil Guard and tell them
[00:00:13] what happened to my father. And will Hana really become
[00:00:17] the next Marquise? Maybe it's better for you not to interfere in other people's
[00:00:21] affairs? Promise. Season three.
[00:00:24] Today at 16:10 on ETV
[00:00:26] Plus.
[00:01:00] Intelligence, Agent Hamilton, today at
[00:01:03] 22:05 on ETV
[00:01:05] Plus.
[00:01:10] The climate law has become a bone of contention in Riigikogu. The first reading
[00:01:14] took place in June, but since then the Reform Party and the ST200 party, which are behind this document,
[00:01:17] have lost their parliamentary majority,
[00:01:21] and the advancement of the law has been called into question. The minority coalition
[00:01:24] hoped to secure the support of the Social Democrats, but
[00:01:28] they failed to reach an agreement here.
[00:02:30] Detention, let's clarify, maybe what specific
[00:02:33] steps the Social Democrats see, what
[00:02:36] are your fundamental positions, why can't you agree with the reformists? We
[00:02:40] made a number of amendments to the law in
[00:02:44] July, and it can be said that there are three most important
[00:02:48] elements. The first element is that the forces were those that we had
[00:02:52] before in strategic documents, and these
[00:02:55] are generally in these obligations
[00:02:58] that we have taken internationally.
[00:05:12] Then suddenly in 2040, everyone must
[00:05:15] rebuild, including enterprises, this creates a huge number of
[00:05:18] problems for them. What else can you note,
[00:05:22] what else are you dissatisfied with regarding specific
[00:05:25] proposals in this project? Well, the most important thing is probably that there would
[00:05:29] be sectoral goals. If we don't have sectoral
[00:05:33] goals, then as the reforms say, we will have a lot of
[00:05:36] flexibility, and flexibility means that it's no longer clear whether we will
[00:05:40] achieve these goals or not. we will.
[00:07:13] in the year when additional energy is needed,
[00:07:16] he only spoke about this, and his
[00:07:20] position was that it makes no sense to build
[00:07:23] gas plants when
[00:07:26] we already have plants that can provide this
[00:07:29] energy in these very short times, which we will not
[00:07:33] have enough of,
[00:07:35] which we have now, so there is no contradiction here after all, no,
[00:07:39] there is no contradiction, under what conditions?
[00:08:12] what happens, well, nothing, we'll live as we lived,
[00:08:16] because we used to have goals, those very general ones, which
[00:08:19] will not be in the law now, and it is possible,
[00:08:23] there is a certain possibility that we will make a law that
[00:08:27] will actually work, we had in
[00:08:30] our studio today a member of the parliamentary commission on the environment and
[00:08:33] a representative of the faction of the Social Democratic Party, thank you,
[00:08:37] thank you, it was a pleasure, well, we continue our broadcast, up next
[00:08:41] is music, we'll be back in this studio in a few minutes,
[00:08:45] gonna make it
[00:12:41] a significant date, it was on this day in 1492
[00:12:44] that Christopher Columbus's expedition reached
[00:12:48] the island of San Salvador, so this day
[00:12:51] is considered the official date of the discovery of America.
[00:12:55] Wow, how many holidays we have on this day, but we won't discover America
[00:12:59] by saying that in 3 minutes we have another news release, Nikolay Loshchin
[00:13:03] will in a way discover America for us, because only he knows what will be in
[00:13:06] the release, good morning, good morning, what will be the announcement, what's in
[00:13:10] the release today, good morning, today Madise will take
[00:13:14] office as President of Estonia, trade unions and employers will hold
[00:13:17] negotiations on the minimum wage, the police found more illegal
[00:13:21] immigrants in the Nõmme district of the capital, there will be other
[00:13:24] news. We are waiting for the release, and for now we will tell you what topics we
[00:13:27] will cover in our broadcast after the actual camera, that is, in the next
[00:13:30] half hour.
[00:13:35] Before starting home renovations, it's worth finding out which works the law
[00:13:38] requires to be documented, otherwise problems can emerge many years
[00:13:42] later.
[00:13:47] The day after tomorrow, Parliament will consider in the second reading a bill
[00:13:50] that provides for new requirements for animal
[00:13:53] shelters.
[00:13:59] Well, up next is a review of an old, so-called newspaper from
[00:14:03] October 12, 1931,
[00:14:06] and exactly 95 years ago, the newspaper Vesti Dnya wrote that
[00:14:09] the Estonian Union of Temperance Societies was celebrating its
[00:14:12] twenty-fifth anniversary. On this occasion, a big celebration was held
[00:14:16] in the great hall of Tartu University, which was
[00:14:19] attended by several ministers. In the twenties and
[00:14:22] thirties of the last century, the Temperance Union
[00:14:26] was a fairly large public organization in Estonia, its headquarters were in Tallinn, and there were over
[00:14:30] sixty branches across the country, which included about 300
[00:14:34] members of the organization. The Estonian union was a member of
[00:14:37] international anti-alcohol organizations and in
[00:14:40] 1926 hosted the World Congress
[00:14:43] against Alcoholism. 95 years ago, they also
[00:14:47] wrote about a meeting of representatives of the Ministry of Public Education
[00:14:50] and Social Security.
[00:14:53] unemployed with bread from
[00:15:07] state grain reserves, and special attention
[00:15:10] should be paid to large families of the unemployed when distributing bread.
[00:15:14] At this meeting, the issue of organizing
[00:15:17] vocational courses for the unemployed was discussed.
[00:15:21] Let's pay attention. an article
[00:15:25] from October 12, 1931,
[00:15:28] Vesti Dnya also reported on the successful
[00:15:31] Tallinn concerts of the Czech violin virtuoso
[00:15:34] named Vasa Prihoda. He was not just
[00:15:38] performer, but truly an international
[00:15:41] star. Vasa Prihoda became famous for his unusual
[00:15:44] virtuoso technique, especially his performance of Paganini's music.
[00:15:48] At that time, he toured extensively in the USA and Europe, and now
[00:15:52] for the first time reached Tallinn, where he gave two concerts. Tickets were
[00:15:56] by no means cheap, but both concerts were sold out
[00:15:59] and the audience was
[00:16:01] delighted.
[00:16:14] Good morning. News is on air. Today, the President
[00:16:17] of Estonia will take office. First, the President-elect,
[00:16:21] together with her spouse, will arrive in Kadriorg, where they will be met by President
[00:16:25] Alar Karis and Sirje Karis. Then they will together head to the square
[00:16:28] in front of the Parliament building. President Alar Karis
[00:16:32] will greet the honor guard, after which both presidents will proceed to Toompea
[00:16:36] Castle. At 15:00, Alar Karis will deliver a
[00:16:39] speech, then Ülle Madise will take the presidential oath and
[00:16:42] deliver her first address as head of state. The ceremony
[00:16:46] will be broadcast, among others, by ETV
[00:16:48] Plus. The central unions of trade unions and
[00:16:52] employers will begin negotiations today on the minimum wage for the twenty-seventh
[00:16:56] year. According to the head of the Central Union of Trade Unions,
[00:16:59] Kavas, trade unions will advocate in negotiations for the work
[00:17:03] of a full-time person to be paid
[00:17:05] decently.
[00:17:10] a goodwill agreement was reached between trade unions and employers, according to which the minimum
[00:17:13] wage should gradually reach 50%
[00:17:17] of the average gross wage in Estonia. According to data for the second quarter of 2026,
[00:17:21] the average gross wage in Estonia was
[00:17:24] 2,243 euros per month, the minimum wage since
[00:17:27] April 2026 is 946 euros or about
[00:17:31] 42% of the average wage, notes
[00:17:34] Ruser. In the third quarter of this year, the number
[00:17:37] of registered unemployed in Estonia decreased to
[00:17:40] 38,000, according to the Unemployment Insurance Fund, such a low
[00:17:44] number of unemployed was last seen in early 2020, while
[00:17:47] the number of vacancies increased by more than a quarter over the year and
[00:17:51] amounted to 5,250.
[00:17:54] Most new offers appeared in manufacturing,
[00:17:56] trade and construction, competition for
[00:18:00] jobs also decreased. If last year there were
[00:18:03] an average of 11 registered unemployed per vacancy,
[00:18:06] this year it was seven. The board of the Unemployment
[00:18:09] Insurance Fund noted that the ability to find a job still
[00:18:12] depends on a person's skills and the field in which they are looking
[00:18:16] for work. Police again detained 10 Sudanese citizens
[00:18:20] in Tallinn's Nõmme district who were illegally in
[00:18:23] Estonia.
[00:18:25] Last night, police received a report about two men on Valdeku Street. On the spot,
[00:18:29] it turned out that they were illegally in Estonia. Other illegal immigrants
[00:18:32] were hiding nearby. Law enforcement officers began searching with the help
[00:18:36] of service dogs and drones. Eight more men
[00:18:39] were found in the nearby forest, who tried to escape. One of
[00:18:43] them injured his hand while fleeing and was taken to the hospital. After
[00:18:47] receiving first aid, he was also transferred to a detention center. All ten
[00:18:50] men lacked legal grounds to be in Estonia. Only one
[00:18:54] had an identification document.
[00:18:56] As a result of the latest Russian
[00:19:00] air strikes on Ukrainian cities, six civilians have died. In
[00:19:03] Kharkiv, a grocery store was attacked, three people died, and another 20
[00:19:07] were injured, including two children. In addition,
[00:19:11] a thermal power plant was attacked.
[00:19:13] The strikes occurred against the backdrop of statements by US President Donald Trump about
[00:19:17] an energy truce between Russia and
[00:19:19] Ukraine. Iran has released a video that
[00:19:23] allegedly shows
[00:19:25] the destruction of a large oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz. According to
[00:19:29] Iran, it is a supertanker 313
[00:19:31] meters long, which is capable of carrying simultaneously
[00:19:35] 2.5 million barrels of oil. According to
[00:19:38] the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the tanker was destroyed by a sea
[00:19:42] mine after it attempted to pass through the Strait of Hormuz
[00:19:45] without Iran's permission and with its navigation system disabled. Iran
[00:19:49] again threatened to destroy all tankers that attempt
[00:19:53] to pass through the Strait of Hormuz in the same
[00:19:54] way.
[00:19:57] Tens of thousands of people took to the streets in Brussels to protest
[00:20:00] the European Union's climate policy. According to police estimates,
[00:20:04] 45,000 people participated in the action.
[00:20:06] The organizers speak of 60 thousand. Participants
[00:20:10] put forward five demands, including raising taxes for
[00:20:13] fuel companies and ending subsidies for fossil
[00:20:16] fuels. They also demanded a just transition to
[00:20:19] an environmentally sustainable society and more active international
[00:20:23] cooperation in the fight against climate
[00:20:25] change.
[00:20:27] At the end of the broadcast, the weather forecast: during the day it will be cloudy, it will rain, in the morning there may be
[00:20:31] thunderstorms in places, the wind will be variable 1.7 m/s. On the northern
[00:20:35] coast, gusts up to 18 m/s.
[00:20:54] On October 12,
[00:20:56] Ülle Madise takes office as head of state.
[00:21:00] ETV Plus viewers will be able to follow the inauguration
[00:21:03] ceremony of the new president of the Republic live.
[00:21:07] The broadcast will be commented by Artur
[00:21:10] Tyulenev and Boris Timofeev.
[00:21:13] Today at 14:40 on ETV
[00:21:15] Plus.
[00:21:21] Watch today on the Horizon program. Julia Madise is officially
[00:21:25] the President of Estonia as of today. Who will
[00:21:28] work in her team, our colleague Artur Tyulenev found out.
[00:21:32] She fulfilled her childhood dream of attending a
[00:21:35] Backstreet Boys concert. Betina Beshkina in our studio
[00:21:39] will share her impressions. Watch it today at
[00:21:42] 19:20.
[00:21:50] as Alexey, I came dressed quite modestly, yes, because
[00:21:53] I don't know why we came like this, then let's
[00:21:56] undress, you could have hyped this up,
[00:21:59] teach me how to live, it's called, I have never
[00:22:03] deceived anyone, but I didn't walk around with a sign, you understand,
[00:22:07] after all, publicity and humanity should not be separated, I
[00:22:10] believe, position obliges
[00:22:14] your own truth, today at 20:30 on ETV
[00:22:17] Plus.
[00:22:22] Let's talk about renovations, knocking down a wall between the kitchen and
[00:22:25] the room, moving the bathroom or changing the heating, before you
[00:22:29] tackle all this, it's worth finding out which works the law requires
[00:22:33] to be documented, otherwise problems can surface years later when selling
[00:22:36] a home or in an insurance case. And in our studio is sworn attorney of Lidl
[00:22:40] Pilf, Oleg Matveev. Good morning, good morning,
[00:22:44] good morning, where does this line run, is there a clear definition of what
[00:22:47] is considered cosmetic repair and minor alterations,
[00:22:51] and what already requires a truly new project approval, well, let's say,
[00:22:55] when there is indeed a building code, where there are
[00:22:58] terms like "brepetus", that is, rebuilding, yes, where it says that there must be significant
[00:23:02] changes, these significant changes must essentially change the essence,
[00:23:05] the essence of the building, but if we speak in simple human language, let me still
[00:23:09] give specific examples, that is, for example, if you paint walls, I don't
[00:23:13] know, change floors without without changing the heating
[00:23:16] system, then yes, it is indeed considered some cosmetic changes that do not affect
[00:23:20] the essence of the house and do not affect, for example, the rights, so to speak, of neighbors, yes,
[00:23:23] conditionally speaking, but everyday examples that can really,
[00:23:27] that concern precisely rebuilding, for example, changes
[00:23:30] in the boiler system or changes in some systems in Estonian, yes, heating system,
[00:23:34] that is, for example, you change a gas system to underfloor heating,
[00:23:38] as is very popular and fashionable today, or conditionally speaking, that is, central heating,
[00:23:41] for example, in Estonian, "pom", that which concerns air
[00:23:45] heating, these are the examples that are most often
[00:23:48] given, well, there are many...
[00:23:55] but what we often see in panel houses, for example, people often knock down a wall
[00:23:58] between rooms, make such a studio, sometimes
[00:24:02] you can see that people move the kitchen to the living room, and from
[00:24:05] the kitchen they make some additional bedroom or another room,
[00:24:09] in such cases, how difficult is it
[00:24:12] to do all this, what needs to be documented, because often
[00:24:16] load-bearing walls must also be there, yes, this is indeed a very important question.
[00:24:20] that is, the most important thing in the law is clearly stated that if it's from 0 to 20
[00:24:23] m2 of premises, well, a house, conditionally
[00:24:27] speaking, apartment associations naturally do not fall under this, because they are automatically more than
[00:24:30] 0.20 m2, yes, indeed, that is, you need to submit in
[00:24:34] 11 cases, that is, a construction notification, in one
[00:24:37] case you still needed to have a construction project, that is, here 100%
[00:24:41] it is necessary to formally contact construction specialists, a construction bureau
[00:24:44] that deals with all this documentation, yes, we know that
[00:24:48] in real life, I apologize. very often no one complies with any
[00:24:51] requirements or procedures, but if, conditionally speaking, you are indeed building an extension,
[00:24:55] making a toilet wider, for example, including a bathroom, then here
[00:24:59] formally, in theory, they might find fault, but we know that they don't
[00:25:03] always find fault, well, what difficulties can arise here when selling or
[00:25:06] in an insurance case, because a person rebuilt it, lives there himself, everything suits him,
[00:25:10] it's precisely when selling that problems can indeed be
[00:25:12] 100% difficult, because even the questions that banks asked,
[00:25:16] yes, that is, usually a Hindamistaak is carried out, that is...
[00:25:20] an expert, conditionally speaking, an appraiser with the necessary category,
[00:25:23] certified, comes to appraise, he looks to see if there were building permits,
[00:25:27] if there were no building permits, if the appraisal act states
[00:25:30] that there was no building permit, that everything
[00:25:34] was done without complying with the rules, then banks can indeed
[00:25:37] impose stricter requirements for obtaining a loan, whether they will give it
[00:25:41] or not is another question, I also have
[00:25:44] a personal story on this topic, that is, let's say, here
[00:25:47] there is indeed a lot of responsibility on the part of the buyer
[00:25:51] and the seller, if they agree, if, conditionally speaking, the buyer
[00:25:54] has money to pay immediately, then there are no problems, but
[00:25:58] if the buyer needs, conditionally speaking, tens of thousands of euros
[00:26:01] in credit, yes, which they don't have, then indeed this can be very serious problems.
[00:26:05] Let's take another situation: a person had a spacious studio, and they decided
[00:26:09] to put up partitions, walls to make it a two-room
[00:26:12] apartment, for example, they did not touch any load-bearing structures, on the contrary,
[00:26:16] they even added structures there, what
[00:26:19] about this case, are these long approvals also needed, well, you know, I think
[00:26:23] that 100% here it's clear that I can't say yes, and it's not
[00:26:26] unambiguous, but I would still 100% recommend contacting construction specialists
[00:26:30] in this part and...
[00:26:32] I would still consult just in case, I would coordinate with
[00:26:36] the city, I would call the administrations which have entire construction departments
[00:26:39] and clarify these issues, because well, you know, yes, that is, you can
[00:26:43] do everything haphazardly, that is, on the one hand, you don't really
[00:26:46] destroy the walls that were there, but on the other hand, there are
[00:26:50] so many nuances that you can, so to speak,
[00:26:54] get very lost in these topics, well, there are also nuances that concern,
[00:26:57] for example, another situation, when apartments are combined, a
[00:27:01] wall is knocked down and they make.
[00:27:32] register - a land book, where, conditionally speaking, the
[00:27:36] footage of the house is indicated, how many apartments are there, that is, these
[00:27:39] data, because everyone officially proceeds from official data,
[00:27:43] and if it suddenly turns out that the official data does not correspond
[00:27:46] to the reality from the same Tiist register, then theoretically,
[00:27:50] of course, the buyer can make a claim, but again
[00:27:54] to the seller, but again, this will not always bear fruit, because you need to clearly
[00:27:57] prove the damage, what kind of damage was there, what kind of damage was not. If the alteration
[00:28:01] happened many years ago, can it be legalized retroactively?
[00:28:05] very important question, the law clearly specifies
[00:28:07] deadlines, if it happened, conditionally speaking, before mid-
[00:28:11] 2015, then it is assumed that everything
[00:28:14] is more or less legal, everything will be much more simplified,
[00:28:18] even moments are clarified that if theoretically it was done before ninety-nine, there it's generally almost
[00:28:22] automatic, but if it was done, for example, in 2020, in 2021, that
[00:28:25] is, so to speak, you fall under these? Good,
[00:28:29] a person did something, decided to legalize it now, and it turns out that
[00:28:43] many violations occurred during this alteration, what consequences
[00:28:46] could force him to return everything to its original state, well, theoretically he could
[00:28:50] indeed be forced to return everything to its original state, but again, this is a matter of negotiation, that is, I don't
[00:28:54] believe that, conditionally speaking, they will sometimes demand to demolish everything again,
[00:28:58] sometimes they themselves give time limits, that is, some specialists are invited,
[00:29:01] but again, indeed, much also depends on the local government, one local
[00:29:05] government will say one thing, another local government will say another, there are also court disputes
[00:29:09] on this topic, even with the Tallinn Department of City
[00:29:13] Planning, that is, they think one thing, the courts think, for example, side with
[00:29:16] the apartment owner, so there are a million
[00:29:19] stories, well, we were talking about what can happen inside
[00:29:22] a house or apartment, but if we take again some apartment
[00:29:26] buildings, then we know that there are many
[00:29:30] prohibited things, for example, glazing
[00:29:33] a balcony is not allowed, that all balconies must
[00:29:36] be similar, doing some repair there at
[00:29:39] your discretion, improving it, so to speak, or making
[00:29:43] it more comfortable, is not allowed, and some people even combine
[00:29:47] a room with a balcony
[00:29:50] and thus also expand their living space,
[00:29:53] how are such problems solved here, what
[00:29:56] permits are also a very important question, because in fact, this is
[00:30:00] more the prerogative of the apartment...
