'We haven't done that much': Former Estonia head says US fears of escalation with Putin are unwarranted

As U.S. support for aiding Ukraine continues to fracture Americans, Kersti Kaljulaid, the former president of Estonia, wants to remind Americans what’s at stake.

Estonia, a country in Northern Europe bordered by the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Finland, is slightly larger than Denmark and has a coastline with 1,521 islands.

Kaljulaid described what's happening across the world as a "tectonic shift," during a recent interview with Fox News Digital at her nation’s embassy in Washington, D.C. "There is the freedom-loving world. And then there are the others – the new Axis of Evil – China, Iran, North Korea, Russia. China is leading that coalition."

"Ukraine, with its brave action, has offered us the opportunity to score the first victory in this battle, and I think we should not miss it," she said.

And the cost of securing the so-called "freedom-loving world" is relatively little, she argues.

"It's very important to understand that Ukrainians are dying, but we, the West, have not spent anything close to what normally needs to be spent to win war. We are spending at the rate of 0.1% of GDP. And frankly speaking, if we could spend 0.5, then Ukraine will win, and it would be first time in history where a major conflict can be actually be won with so little resources."

Her visit came just after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited the U.S., causing a stir among Republicans after he visited Pennsylvania – swing state – with only Democratic lawmakers and called Sen. JD Vance "too radical."
