"The United Kingdom has lost a great leader and a great politician, whose influence extended far beyond the borders of her own nation," the presidents said in a joint statement. "Countries in Eastern Europe will always remember Baroness Thatcher's resolve in her stance against communist regimes and her support for freedom and democracy in our part of the continent."
Presidents Ilves and Bērziņš extended their condolences to Mrs. Thatcher's family, to current British prime minister David Cameron and to the people of the United Kingdom.
