Estonia minister calls first female president ’emotionally heated woman’
Kersti Kaljulaid criticised by far-right minister for leaving swearing-in ceremony of minister accused of domestic violence
Estonia’s new interior minister has called the country’s first female president, Kersti Kaljulaid, an “emotionally heated woman” for walking out during the swearing-in of a cabinet minister accused of domestic violence.
Mart Helme made the sexist remark at a news conference where he also accused domestic news outlets of applying a double standard in covering abuse allegations against a former minister from his far-right party.
