Madam Prime Minister, Dear Kaja [Kallas],
Ladies and gentlemen,
I am very happy to be here today to address the Digital Summit.
And I am particularly pleased to be in Tallinn. Not only because Estonia is a pioneer in advanced digital solutions, in e-government, e-voting and digitisation of business – and therefore there is no better place to speak about the European digital agenda.
But also because Estonia has shown impressive solidarity with Ukraine. You have driven the agenda of unity at European level, on sanctions, military support or the fight against Russian propaganda. Of course, this is a collective endeavour at European level, but we all know what Estonia is doing – and for this I want to thank you.
Given the current geopolitical context, this year’s theme of the Summit for a more resilient democracy in the light of technological progress is of particular relevance….
