EU flags removed from Riigikogu reflect current realities, speaker says

New Riigikogu speaker Henn Põlluaas (EKRE) ordered the European Union flag to be removed from the parliament's white hall, opposition MP Marko Mihkelson (Reform) said on Monday afternoon, according to BNS. In response, Põlluaas said the removal reflected the fact that Estonia no longer holds the rotating Council of the EU presidency.
