Austrian President Heinz Fischer is due to start a three-day trip to both Estonia and Latvia starting on Monday.
On Monday, Fischer will arrive at the Estonian capital, Tallinn, accompanied by Minister for Family, Sophie Karmasin, Minister for Economics, Reinhold Mitterlehner, and other political and economic representatives.
There he will meet his counterpart Toomas Hendrik Ilves and Prime Minister Taavi Roivas, with the topics of discussion expected to include the current political situation in Ukraine and relations with Russia.
Around 25 percent of people in Estonia are Russian. Long before Russia's annexation of Crimea, Estonia accused central and western European countries of ignoring eastern European countries' warnings about Russia. Estonia and neighbouring Latvia are both NATO members.
On Tuesday, the Austrian president will meet with Latvian President Andris Berzins in Riga, the capital of Latvia, before sitting down to talks with Prime Minister Laimdota Straujuma a day later.
