	The Raw Story \| Russian parliament calls for memorials treaty with Estonia
		The parliament, known as the State Duma, asked the Cabinet to take measures for the "speedy" completion of an agreement determining the care and status of war monuments.
		Estonia's parliament passed a bill last month providing a legal basis for the removal of the monument, a statue of a Soviet soldier that stands vigil over the bodies of 13 Soviet soldiers killed in fighting against the Nazis.
		Many in Estonia, as in the other Baltic states of Latvia and Lithuania, consider the country's 45-year membership in the Soviet Union an occupation akin to that which the Nazis wreaked when they took control of the city during World War II.

	Estonian MEPs: common energy policy unlikely
		TALLINN - Two members of the European Parliament from Estonia, Toomas Hendrik Ilves and Andres Tarand, have voiced skepticism about the European Union’s readiness to form a common energy policy given the fact that member states’ interests in the sector vary widely and frequently collide.
		In Ilves’ opinion, real hope for a common energy policy could come about only by some deeper crisis or unexpected step by Russia, such as making the price of natural gas dependent on the removal of visa requirements.

	Estonia parliament may recognize ex-SS soldiers \| Progressive U (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The bill's authors said the document was initiated by a number of organizations "of fighters for Estonia's liberation," who have urged the parliament to formulate its position on the participation of Estonians in the Second World War, "first of all in the ranks of the German army."
		The issue of recognizing Estonians who fought for Nazi Germany during WWII as freedom fighters was first raised at a 2004 congress of the Union of Fighters for Estonia's Liberation, whose members are veterans of the 20th Estonian SS division.
		From what I understand, they were recruited in 1944, and lost, along with the Germans, when the Soviets reoccupied Estonia.
