πŸ”₯"Putler is a war criminal." This is how Putin was congratulated on May 9 by his neighbors from Estonia.

The banner appeared on the wall of a museum in Narva, facing the Russian Ivangorod, where a stage for a patriotic concert was built. Narva is separated from Russia only by a river, which can be crossed via the Friendship Bridge.

If they could read that they’d be very upset.

Well considering it's written in English I doubt Russians are their target audience.

I think all of Europe, if not the world, is the target audience here. Including Russia.

My thoughts exactly

YES!

And they are only replying in kind: Russia organized this concert to deliberately troll Estonia. Worse actually - there's lots of ethnic Russians in the east of Estonia, most of which speak Russian not Estonian. So, to deliberately strengthen dissent.

"Russia demands removal of banner"

Boohoo! Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Also, Victory Day tastes hollow when you are being the genocidal nazis today.

There are a lot of russian speaking estonians in general, not just in the east. Tallinn has quite a big population for example (Tallinn has basically 30% of the population of the whole country).

It's [not really] funny, because it's true.
