En venstreorientert fra Vesten?

"Must naine Tartus" [Den svarte kvinnen i Tartu] har fått sin første omtale på nett, i "Franz"´ blogg Erapooletu vaatleja. Debatt-essayet mitt er sålangt den nest mest leste saken på nett fra ukens utgave av Sirp.

Eilses "Sirbis" oli üks kummaline artikkel avaldatud. Praegu Tartus> doktorantuuris õppiv norralane Morten Tönnesseni kirjutise pealkiri on "Must naine Tartus: Eesti toodab rohkem pagulasi, kui ise vastu võtab". Tönnessen avaldab imestust selle üle, et Eestis nii vähe pagulasi on. Tema meelest peaks eesti vastu võtma 300 pagulast aastat. Vaat sellised need Lääne vasakpoolsed on. Tänan "hea" nõuande eest.

I "Sirp" i går stod en merkelig artikkel på trykk. Artikkelen av Morten Tønnesen, som nå er doktorstudent i Tartu, er "Den svarte kvinnen i Tartu: Estland produserer flere flyktninger enn [landet] selv tar imot". Tønnessen gir uttrykk for undring over at det er så lite flyktninger i Estland. Etter hans mening burde Estland ta imot 300 flyktninger i året. Så slik er de, disse venstreorienterte fra Vesten. Takk for "godt" råd.

I was really very surprised, that somebody except my friends reads my blog. I was simply a bit ironical, I really did not want to say anything malicious.

Hi Franz,

ok - but maybe you can explain the irony to me? I guess part of your point is that there are aspects of the Estonian society that I neglect... which ones?

Well, I can point to some aspects. Estonia is simply not attractive for refugees from Third World. Question of refugrees from these countries is simply not topical. Estonia is not so rich country, that can call refugees here.
And 855 "refugees" from Estonia are not real refugees.

And important is also traumatic experience from period of Soviet dominance. Russian migration at this time was numerous. For example in Tallinn ethnic Estonians fell into minority for some period (47,4 % in 1989). This has caused negative attitude toward migration. Western people often can not understand this.
