Europe's youngest prime minister

. Prime Minister Juhan Parts, 36, has pledged to cut taxes and take Estonia to a new level of prosperity by fostering the development of higher tech industries—while also trying to reverse the country's declining birth rate. His 13 ministers are drawn from a three-party coalition. Parts' center-right Res Publica party, the center-right Reform Party and the center-left People's Union control 60 seats in the 101-seat legislature. Parts' administration follows a tradition here of putting relatively young Estonians in positions of power. The new justice minister, Ken-Marti Vaher, and culture minister, Urmas Paet, are both 28; Economics Minister Meelis Atonen is 36, Foreign Minister Kristiina Ojuland is 37 and Social Affairs Minister Marko Pomerants is 39. The remaining eight Cabinet members are over 40. Ojuland was also foreign minister in the previous caretaker government.
