“Estonia and Portugal share very similar views when it comes to the importance of values-based policies, the role of international organisations and Russia’s aggression,” the head of state remarked. “Not only does Portugal understand and support Ukraine, but it continues to demonstrate one of the highest levels of support for the beleaguered nation in Europe. I thanked Portugal for its contribution to the security of the Baltic region and to NATO air policing – both Estonia and Portugal are defending our common borders and values in different corners of the continent.”
On the invitation of his Estonian counterpart, President de Sousa took part in the Arraiolos Group meeting held in Tallinn over the last two days alongside 10 other EU heads of state. The event focused on the growing role of AI in society and the international security situation.
