Estonia may temporarily close its border checkpoints due to migration pressure from Russia. Tallinn calls on its citizens to return from Russia and not to travel there.
This is stated on the website of the Estonian Police and Border Guard Department.
According to law enforcement officials, in recent weeks Russia has deliberately brought groups of foreigners to the Estonian border who do not have the legal right to enter the European Union.

— If these actions continue, we will be forced to close border checkpoints to protect national security and public order, as has already been done in Finland, Estonian border guards report.
If the border crossing point is closed, no one will be able to pass through it.
This means that to return to Estonia you will have to use another checkpoint, and for this you will have to rearrange your route.
