The statue is related with those Soviet soldiers but in one way; Soviet origin.
Statue was a monument of victory, and painful reminder of Soviet occupation. Remains of the Soviet soldiers buried there have been buried in a military cemetary, where their remains belong.
Estonians were much more humane than Soviets in this matter.

Eventually that Russian boy in the night of protests was stabbed by Estonians.
Here news said he was stabbed by other Russians..

Eventually two German tourists in the night of protests were detained by the police, huddled and beaten in the hangars together with other detainees only cause they didn't speak Estonian language whereat police determined them as being non-Estonians.
Permanent residents of Estonia, not tourists. While beating them was very wrong and should be looked into, be mindful why there was the riot in the first place.

Do you mean that Russians feel the need to wage wars again?
If so, do sign upp, we'll meet in battle.
