If you're a real Russian, don't have any fun in Tallinn

Nov 13, 2007
From press reports

TALLINN -- Russian newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda is calling on Russians to boycott visits to Estonia and Estonian goods over the Christmas and New Year period.

According to press reports, Komsomolskaya Pravda is running a campaign under the slogan ‘I don’t travel to eSStonia’ which portrays Estonia as a neo-Nazi state. As a result, the paper urges Russians to refrain from shopping trips and holiday breaks in the Estonian capital, which is traditionally a popular destination with Russian tourists over the festive season.

Estonian-made chocolate and beer are singled out as goods that should not be found in any patriotic Russian’s Christmas stocking.
