Estonia is pondering the deployment of a military unit, averaging around 150 soldiers, as part of a "Coalition of the Willing" deterrence force led by the UK and France [1][2][5]. This force is intended to include:
- Boots on the ground: Land units for security operations.
- Sea power: Mine-countermeasures vessel deployment [2].
- Trainers and staff officers: Assisting with ceasefire enforcement and operational planning [3][5].
Estonia's Prime Minister, Kristen Michal, stresses that this plan requires approval from the parliament (Riigikogu) before deployment [2][5]. Regarding Ukraine's long-term solution, Estonia advocates for NATO membership as the preferred option [4][5].
