The park where the memorial is situated has since been cordoned off and remains under 24-hour police guard. Ask Heiki Ahonen, director of a museum dedicated to the Nazi and Soviet occupations, how Estonia is faring as it seeks to construct an integrated society, and he snorts: "This is not nation building; it's more like putting out fires."
