I almost agree. I am Estonian and our Russian consistent is bigger than yours. Heres the witch circle - at the moment our capital for example is nicely russified by companies and city government because so many Russians live here and because its so comfy here like this (everything freely available in russian - education, information, healthcare etc). So - they are even more moving here and even less learning Estonian and there you go. The refugee situation made everything again much more difficult because Ukranians tend to speak mostly Russian here (some get pretty mad figuring out our youth is mostly Estonian-English speaking. I guess they thought Russian is more popular here). So again, now is the moment its the nice excuse to put everything even more in Russian. We love to support Ukranians here but we have this Russian dilemma everyday and I am so sorry but we are sick of hearing Russian all around us in Tallinn (you can open which ever forum or comment section in Estonian online articles and it is the most popular theme - too much Russian language lately).
