Finnish president Sauli Niinistö is on his first official trip to Estonia on Wednesday. Economic matters dominated talks between Niinistö and his Estonian counterpart, Toomas Hendrik Ilves, who said his country should model its economic policy on Finland.
Niinistö also met with the speaker of the Estonian parliament, Ene Ergman, and Prime Minister Andrus Ansip.
