Tartu ülikooli peahoone ees heisatud Taiwani lipp ajas Hiina pahaseks. Mis uudist? Tartus õppiv hiinlasest tudeng informeeris Hiina saatkonda.
Aitäh @raivladimirov , et seisate Taiwani omariikluse ja demokraatia eest.

À fire alarm delayed Baltic independence by a week. But it was a real pleasure yesterday to have @parispychen (@unibirmingham, f: @UCLSSEES PhD) with us for another week of Baltic Politics & Society seminars! Always great to chat in Estonian with my Taiwanese friend, too. 🙂
