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

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.
