    What would you say are the benefits of this? Surely Russians fleeing Russia are not the ones responsible for the war on Ukraine

      it seems they have designed carve-outs for this purpose, although ymmv

      Exceptions to the rule include:

      • Russian embassy employees and their family members working in Estonia;
      • Employees directly involved in the transportation of goods and passengers;
      • Those who have the right to freedom of movement under EU law;
      • People visiting close relatives;
      • People entering for humanitarian reasons.

      personally i don’t see why you need to pass a law like this but, i suppose i’m not estonian
