The shelter dog is waiting for a home for the fifth year
Growing up in a wild pack of dogs, Kiku, who is very shy, has been waiting for his human for the fifth year in the animal shelter next to Haapsalu. At noon on Thursday, Kiku greeted the visitors with lively barks as usual: efficient and precise as a doorbell, he signaled that someone had arrived.

Hanna Miller conveys a lost world to the reader
Hanna Miller, who has translated the memories of several Baltic Germans into Estonian, is of the opinion that the role of the Baltic Germans in our history must not be forgotten. “The topic of the Baltic Germans is so deeply affecting Estonia, and the legacy of the Baltic Germans that they have left us is so incredibly great,” said Miller, who met with readers at the Haapsalu library on Tuesday evening.

What are the key factors contributing to the recent escalation of tensions in the Middle East, as described by Tor Wennesland?
**Interview with Tor Wennesland: Insights on Current Diplomatic Challenges**
*Interviewer:* Thank you for joining us, Mr. Wennesland. With the recent escalations in diplomatic tensions, you’ve described the situation as an “avalanche” that took many by surprise. Can you elaborate on what you mean by that?
*Tor Wennesland:* Certainly. The complexities surrounding this issue have always been present, but the recent developments have accelerated in a way that has overwhelmed many stakeholders. This is particularly concerning because we lack clear dynamics that could guide us towards effective resolutions. It feels as though events are unfolding too rapidly for traditional diplomatic measures to keep pace [[1](https://news.un.org/en/interview/2024/11/1157241)].
*Interviewer:* You’ve been involved with these matters since the signing of Oslo II. How do you compare the current state of affairs to previous challenges you’ve faced?
*Tor Wennesland:* In the past, though we encountered significant difficulties, there was often a semblance of predictability in the dialogue process. Now, many elements have come together unexpectedly, leading to a scenario where we must adapt quickly. This presents a unique challenge as we work towards re-establishing trust and dialogue among the parties involved [[1](https://news.un.org/en/interview/2024/11/1157241)].
*Interviewer:* Given these challenges, what do you see as the path forward for diplomacy in this context?
*Tor Wennesland:* It’s essential that we recommit to diplomatic engagement. While the landscape is daunting, I believe that with sustained dialogue and support from the international community, there is still a possibility to forge a path towards peace. It’s about finding common ground amid the chaos [[1](https://news.un.org/en/interview/2024/11/1157241)].
*Interviewer:* Thank you for sharing your insights, Mr. Wennesland. It seems there is much work ahead.
*Tor Wennesland:* Absolutely, thank you for having me. The commitment to dialogue is more critical than ever.
