the wording of "however, gaining official membership of the Nordic region alongside with neighboring Finland was interrupted by the occupation of the Soviet Union after World War II" is confusing, as Estonia was originally occupied by the Soviet Union in 1940, meaning for part of world war 2 Estonia was occupied by the Soviet Union, although it was also occupied by Nazi Germany. There may also be a grammatical error in "the occupation of the Soviet Union" rather than "occupation by the Soviet Union".

A small caveat, but one which I agree would require consensus nonetheless. "Estonia has been interested in joining the Nordic region again since 1991, when it regained its independence from the Soviet Union's occupation." I believe the word "occupation" should to be dropped and simply leave it as "independence from the Soviet Union", as it implies a state of military control over a territory rather than the civil administration (undemocratic or not) in place before 1991. Is this phrasing preferable, or should it be left as is? KOSƧIO ( talk) 21:23, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
