Postimees supports Prime Minister Kristen Mihhal’s proposal for the state to set a target for defense spending at five percent of GDP. The publication also aligns with the opinion of “Power and Security” column editor Meelis Oidussalu, who cautions against relying solely on “magic numbers.” Postimees acknowledges the concerns raised by military leaders, including Martin Herem and Andrus Meriloh, regarding existing gaps in the capabilities of the Defense Forces, and suggests preparedness for potential increases in spending to address these deficiencies.
