Russia accused of 'attack on EU'

Estonia's foreign minister says Russia's response to the row over a Soviet war memorial is an "attack" on the whole European Union.
 
Minister Urmas Paet said Russia had launched real, psychological and - via the internet - virtual attacks since Estonia decided to relocate the statue.
 
Mr Paet called for a "vigorous" EU reaction to Moscow.
 
Estonians of Russian origin rioted last week in protest at the decision to move the statue of a Red Army soldier.
 
One person died and 153 were injured in the unrest.

In a statement issued on Tuesday evening, Mr Paet protested against what he said were "co-ordinated activities undertaken against Estonia by Russia" in response to the row.

 
He said "cyber terrorists'" attacks against internet pages of Estonian government agencies and the office of the President had originated from Russian government computers.
