Estonia's European Union Policy

Estonian interests

To better represent the interests of Estonia, the government determines the goals and principles on which we rely in our activities towards the European Union. Since Estonia's accession to the European Union in 2004, framework documents have been drawn up, which determine the main principles of Estonia's EU policy and based on which the government's activities towards the EU are planned.

The government approved Estonia’s European Union policy priorities for 2025 - 2027 on June 19, 2025.

The priorities focus on developing European defence capabilities, simplifying the regulatory environment and preparing for the negotiations on the new long-term budget of the EU.
