"I roundly condemn this horrible act by so-called "separatists". We know the truth, we know that none of these acts, be it Volnovakha or [shooting down a passenger airplane] MH17, would have occurred without outside troops and outside weapons," wrote the Estonian Head of State.
"My heart goes out to the families of the victims and to all of the victims of terrorism in Ukraine," said President Ilves, in expressing his condolences to the next of kin and friends of the thousands of people who have been victims of the violence and battles that have taken place in southeast Ukraine since last spring.
"Estonia is with you," he confirmed.
