Early life and education
Kaja Kallas was born in Tallinn on 18 June 1977.[3] She is the daughter of Siim Kallas, who was the 14th prime minister of Estonia and later a European Commissioner.[4] During the Soviet deportations from Estonia, her mother Kristi, six months old at the time, was deported to Siberia with her mother and grandmother in a cattle car and lived there until she was ten years old.[5] Kallas's great-grandfather was Eduard Alver, Commander of the Estonian Defence League (Kaitseliit) during the Estonian War of Independence, and the first chief of the Estonian Police from 1918 to 24 May 1919.[5][6]
Kallas graduated from the University of Tartu in 1999 with a bachelor's degree in law. She lived in France and Finland briefly while training in European law.[7] From 2007, she attended the Estonian Business School, getting an EMBA (Executive Master of Business Administration) in economics in 2010.[8]
