Prince William was warmly welcomed by Estonias president as he kicked off a two day trip to show his support for Russias neighbour in the face of Putins aggression.
The Prince of Wales was all smiles as he shook hands with Alar Karis at the Presidential Palace Kadriorg. He arrived at 2.35pm local time and walked up a grand staircase
The Prince was directed to sign the guest book with a gold pen as Mr Karis joked: Hopefully the pen will work. William replied, Oh, hopefully, before explaining: Im left-handed.
He sat at an oak table on a navy blue chair that was embroidered with gold flowers and gold stripes. Next to the table were the flags of Estonia and the United Kingdom.
He walked through the oak-panelled Presidential doors and headed into the 100 year old palaces Blue Cabinet room to have his meeting.
The pair had tea, coffee as president Mr Karis told him: We did fight for our independence and later on as well with Afghanistan, and now. With British troops at Tapa we really really appreciate it adding: This morning the Defence Minister said he'd probably send some troops to Ukraine. Hopefully some of these troops will stay also.
