Dear Karin Leichter-Tammisto

Thank you for sharing Mr Villu Kõve’s reply. We are very happy to hear about his interest in a meeting with our President, Pascal Pichonnaz.

We believe there is significant potential for mutual benefit through institutional collaboration, and the purpose of the meeting is to explore possible avenues for such cooperation. In particular, we will highlight ELI’s strong Individual and Institutional membership base, of particular relevance to the Supreme Court of Estonia, which already includes a wide range of Supreme Courts (more here). Thus, we will share with Mr Villu Kõve key insights into ELI’s network, core activities, and ongoing projects, and we would be pleased to hear any ideas he may have for future projects that ELI could embark to further the development of law in Europe.

I hope he will find this overview helpful. Please find below ELI’s President availabilities for June and July 2025:

• * 5 June, from 17:00 to 18:00 CET

• * 7 July, from 12 :00 to 13 :00 CET

• * 8 July, from 14 :00 to 15 :00 CET

• * 9 July, from 10:00 to 11:00 CET

• * 10 July, from 10 :30 to 11 :30 CET

Thank you so much for letting us know which of these time slots works for Mr Villu Kõve.

With very best wishes
