History

[edit]

Poland established diplomatic relations with Estonia on May 4, 1921, when representative of the Republic of Estonia delivered letter of credence to the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

On September 30, 1939, diplomatic relations between Poland and Estonia were dissolved because of the Soviet-German Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, which expropriated among others Poland and Estonia. Between 1939 and 1991 there was no official relations between Polish People's Republic led by communists and Estonian SSR, which was a part of the Soviet Union. However, there were bilateral relations between Polish government-in-exile and Estonian government-in-exile.

In 1989 Poland extricated from the Iron Curtain, in turn in 1991 Estonia gained independence. On September 2, 1991, diplomatic relations between countries were officially restored. In 1993 Poland opened embassy in Tallinn.[1]
