Estonia on Russia's actions in Ukraine: This is genocide

Dr. Evhen Tsybulenko took part in the preparation of the Riigikogu (Parliament of Estonia) statement on the Russian Federation's war crimes and genocide in Ukraine. The statement was unanimously adopted by the Riigikogu on 21.04.2022.
According to the statement , it has been ascertained that in the war of aggression waged by the Russian Federation against Ukraine, systematic and massive war crimes have been committed against the Ukrainian nation by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. These crimes are ideologically incited by Russia's political and military leadership and its national propaganda authorities.

"In the temporarily occupied territories, in particular the towns of Bucha, Borodyanka, Hostomel, Irpin, Mariupol, and many other Ukrainian settlements, the Russian Federation has committed acts of genocide, inter alia mass atrocities against the civilian population," the statement reads. "These have consisted of murders, enforced disappearances, deportations, imprisonment, torture, rape and the desecration of corpses." https://news.err.ee/1608571816/estonia-on-russia-s-actions-in-ukraine-this-is-genocide

📣Invitation to the seminar “SMALL STATES AND REGIONAL INTEGRATION – MULTIPLYING OR DILUTING INFLUENCE?”

THURSDAY, 28 APRIL 2022
15:00-16:30
SOC-426

✔️Presentation by IOANNIS F. PAPAGEORGIOU, Associate Professor, Department of Political Sciences, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece
✔️Discussant: Katrin Nyman-Metcalf, Adjunct Professor, Department of Law
✔️Moderator: Külli Sarapuu, Associate Professor, Ragnar Nurkse Department of Innovation and Governance

The resilience and viability of small states are widely discussed at the global arena. These issues attract academic attention, but are also actively addressed in international organizations and policy debates. Despite the general recognition that small states face different challenges than their larger neighbours, there is still a considerable room for discussing the exact content and implications of the challenges and the potential coping strategies. The seminar focuses on one aspect of the topic and interrogates whether smaller states gain or lose influence through regional integration schemes? Usually, the participation of smaller states in regional integration schemes obeys either of the two rationales: the “satellite” rationale, whereby small states aware of their international irrelevance ally themselves steadily to a major power in order to gain a ‘vicarious’ form of relevance, and the “union fait la force” one which, inversely, considers membership as a way to enhance state’s own particular needs providing a regional ‘loudspeaker’. The discussion will focus on these two alternatives and will ask how and to what extent they apply in current circumstances.
Ioannis F. Papageorgiou is Associate Professor at the Department of Political Sciences of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, teaching European integration, EU political systems and policies and Comparative Politics. He is a lawyer and political scientist (law degree from the University of Athens, MA in comparative politics from the University of Paris I, and MA in development cooperation from the Université Libre de Bruxelles). His PhD (2001) from the ULB dealt with regional integration in Central America. During the Cyprus Presidency of the Council of the EU in 2012, Ioannis acted as the Chair of the Asylum Working Party in the Council of Ministers of the EU. He has also worked as an independent expert in several international projects on migration and asylum since 2003 and was the Director of the Greek Asylum Service between 2011-2012. Between 2016-2018 he worked in the Policy Department for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs of the European Parliament in Brussels. Since 2019, Ioannis holds the Chair Jean Monnet on “The Fundamentals of European Integration: Democracy, institutions and policies”. In 2021, he was a Fulbright Visiting Scholar with the Georgetown Law University (Washington, DC). His academic research covers issues of European political integration, immigration policy and international humanitarian and refugee law.
The seminar is organised jointly by the SBG development project ‘TalTech School of Business and Governance as the centre of competence for small states’ governance’ and the TalTech Law School. The aim of the project is to explore the academic opportunities offered by the size perspective, to debate the relevance of small state studies, to discuss joint research interests, and to promote SBG collaboration and networking.

😍🎉👏 Congratulations, Niina!

-ENG below-

Detsembri alguses toimus TalTechi Arengufondi aktus, kus teiste seas tunnustati ka majandusteaduskonna stipendiumi stipendiaate. Majandusteaduskond andis välja kaks 1300 euro suurust bakalaureuseõppe stipendiumit ning üks 2000 euro suuruse magistriõppe stipendiumi. 💸

Ühe bakalaureuseõppe stipendiumi pälvis Niina Häkkinen, kes õpib õigusteadust. 🥳

Niina kasvas üles Põhja-Soomes Rootsi piiri lähedal. Sellises multikultuurses keskkonnas kasvamine äratas temas huvi erinevate kultuuride, rahvusvahelisuse ja meid ümbritseva õigusraamistiku uurimise vastu.

Õppetöö kõrvalt on ta aktiivne ka tudengielus ning kuulub MTÜ Õigus Juuratudengid juhatusse. Peale bakalaureuseõpingute lõpetamist soovib ta omandada õigusteaduse magistrikraadi Hollandis või Rootsis.

At the beginning of December, a festive meeting of TalTech Development Fund was held, where, among others, the scholarship holders of the School of Business and Governance were recognized. Two 1,300-euro bachelor's degree scholarships for the School of Business and Governance and one 2,000-euro master's degree scholarship were awarded. 💸

One of the bachelor's degree scholarships was awarded to law student Niina Häkkinen. 🥳

Niina grew up in Northern Finland, near the Swedish border. Growing up in this multicultural environment, initially awakened her interest in different cultures, internationality, and researching the legal framework that surrounds us.

Besides studies, she has been actively involved in student life and she is a Board member of MTÜ Õigus Juuratudengid. After completing her bachelor’s studies, she intends to pursue a master’s degree in law, either in the Netherlands or in Sweden.
