Pro-Kremlin youth group says it will stop protests
A pro-Kremlin youth group today said it would end a blockade of the Estonian Embassy in Moscow, where activists have been protesting for days over the relocation of a statue of a Soviet soldier in the Estonian capital.
The move could ease tensions building between Moscow and the West over the raucous protests, which have been the most visible Russian response to Estonia’s action and have drawn sharp criticism from the European Union and Nato.
