Estonia’s sustained investment in its defence forces has largely been matched by a commitment to strong governance standards. Parliamentary oversight is strong and increased investment in defence has been accompanied by efforts to improve transparency over procurement procedures. However, the trend toward overclassification and lack of protection for whistleblowers remain key gaps in addressing corruption risks.
