Eva-Maria Liimets

Eva-Maria Liimets (born 31 May 1974) is an Estonian politician. She served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs in the cabinet of Prime Minister Kaja Kallas. She was nominated by the Estonian Centre Party as an independent in January 2021 and officially joined the party on 9 June 2021. Along with all seven cabinet ministers of the governing coalition’s junior partner, she was dismissed on 3 June 2022.

She has a degree in public administration from the University of Tartu and a master’s degree in international business management (MBA) from the Estonian Business School. She is a graduate of the 19th International Training Course in Security Policy at the Geneva Centre for Security Policy (GCSP).

She served as Estonia's ambassador to the Czech Republic with credentials also to Slovenia and Croatia.

Shortly after Liimets took office, the foreign ministry announced an "arctic month" starting from 28 January 2021, amid plans by Estonia to apply for observer status at the Arctic Council in 2021. "Developments in the Arctic should be a concern for everyone, as the climate change there affects the whole world," Liimets said.
