Estonian PM Kaja Kallas set to become the next EU High Representative

Great news! The European Council nominates Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas as candidate for High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. When a reporter asked her on whether it was a done deal she replied with the old Estonian proverb "don't go and share the bearskin before the bear has been shot.'' Kallas offers strong leadership qualities that the EU needs right now. I have no doubt she would be perfect for this role. 

May the Estonianisation of European foreign policy begin!
