TALLINN, June 12 (RIA Novosti) - Estonia hosts the Baltic countries' prime-ministerial conference-Tallinn, June 21-and so is toughening frontier control today into June 22, on Interior Minister Margus Leivo's order, announced Interior Ministry PR.

Arrivals and leavers will have their ID checked on a border guard database. A usual, milder frontier crossing routine comes back as soon as the summiteers leave the country.

"The passing tough arrangement is for our guests' and our own safety. There is nothing extraordinary about it-all European Union countries do so on frontiers within the EU for domestic security, if need be," explained the Interior Minister.
