Estonians and our supporters in other countries are recognized with state decorations for their perseverance in their activities and loyalty to the contemporary Estonian values of openness and democracy, knowledge and entrepreneurship, caring and noticing.
When exactly the state decorations will be handed over, will depend on the virus crisis. „We intend to organize a festive and dignified event, but it will have to wait until the virus crisis recedes,“ Public Relations Adviser to the President Taavi Linnamäe said.
