		<description>Dear Mr Mart Laar,

With reference to your article “The Estonian Economic Miracle” published August 7, 2007 in the Backgrounder published by The Heritage Foundation. I wish to draw your attention to the specific sections titled “The Rule of Law” and “Property Reform”.

For over 17 years thousands of Estonian citizens have suffered and are still suffering serious economic hardship and emotional distress as a direct result of the Estonian government’s refusal to resolve the issues involving Property Reform.

Tens of millions of kroons, of taxpayers money, have been spent by the Estonian government on not resolving this problem.

Estonia has a people’s constitution, national laws, has ratified to the Human Right Convention and the refugee Convention. All these provided a lawful and finite resolution to the property reform as early as 1992 and absolutely as of 1997.

In 1992 the Estonian government failed to regulate the documents which could be relied upon to correctly determine the status of applicants; this being either a refugee or a contractual resettler.

As of 1997 this issue was resolved. Estonia had ratified to the Refugee Convention and with the Estonian Constitution’s article 123 lg 2 and the conventions article 12 in mind this decision was no longer for Estonia to make.

If either an applicant or sunduurnike was unhappy with a decision made by the OVVTK, based on the German Government documents of 1939 – 1949 then they would have to take the German government to court to have the applicant’s status changed.

The Estonian courts or commissions had no legal right to determine a person’s status in any other way as this is a violation of Germany’s sovereignty, Estonia’s Constitution and foreign treaties; yet over 125 (information provided by the Estonian rahandusminiteerium) decisions were made here in Estonia by the Estonian courts and commissions.

Why was the rule of law not followed? It is obvious that not to resolve this issue has been, and still is, a powerful political election tool for many parties; but is it right that political parties place their political ambitions above those of the very people they are elected to serve?

Every citizen of Estonia suffers as a result of the passive corruption demonstrated by the Government of Estonia in not using the rule of law to resolve this issue.

This would have saved the Estonian economy millions of kroons and produced millions of kroons of revenue which would be helpful in today’s economic climate.

Currently the Estonian government faces millions of kroons worth of damage payouts to the people whose lives have been put on hold or destroyed over the last 17 years, and still counting.

This right for compensation is guaranteed under the Estonian Constitution, whether the properties are returned or not, privatised or not as the cause is directly due to the Estonian Government not intervening in the actions of the OVVTK commissions; despite the fact that they are state government appointed organs.

During the 8 years that I have dealt with this issue I have provided crucial German Government documents, of that period (Himmler, Internal Security Police and Immigration Department Orders and Directives), to the Estonian government.

Estonia also had an active Embassy in Berlin as of the early 1990s and these documents were available as of pre 1990.

Despite corresponding with numerous Government Ministries up to and including the President of Estonia not one Ministry requested further information, made enquiries or demonstrated any concern. All replied within the mandatory 30 days stating why they cannot assist with the primary reason being article 154 of the Estonian Constitution.

When will Estonia commence to become a democratic state where the interests of the citizens are a concern for the politicians above and beyond their own political ambitions?

When will Estonia become a democratic state where the rule of law is applied equally and not just to the less influential and lower class citizens?

Article 13 of the Estonian Constitution accords The Right to Protection by the state to all its citizens. This however does not apply when the citizen’s Constitutional, legal and human rights are being violated by the totalitarian and arbitrary actions of the Tallinn City Council.

More that 25% of my late father’s life, 30% of my life and 50% of my children’s lives have been seriously affected by this corruption and after 17 years is not time the Estonian Government practices what it preaches? Or is all this ‘self praise’ and ‘chest beating’ only a show for the world?</description>
