"We no longer want to live in bourgeois Estonia, where nobody cares about the common people...with raging unemployment and corruption, and where everything depends on NATO and the Americans," Russian communists from St Petersburg, who are assisting the 'republic,' quoted its founder, Andres Tamm, as saying.
Residents and founders of the 'Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic' have already formed a national 'Soviet government,' a police force, and have begun demarcating the state's borders.
Meanwhile, residents of the republic claim that the "bourgeois" Estonian government has sent a "squad of relatives of Estonian Nazi SS veterans" to regain control over the breakaway territory.
The republic is currently drafting a treaty of friendship with Russia to be submitted to the Russian president in the next few days.
Estonia is a former Soviet republic and a current member of both NATO and the EU.

It's a fake story. The sign they hold has spelling mistakes from cyrillic-latin transliteration;)
