The Estonian government treated Russia's proposition with great prejudice, but still decided to accept it. Still, it was decided, that before signing the treaty, Moscow's true motives had to be investigated; in addition, to form the truce, the acceptance of the Entente and other foreign political partners (Latvia, Lithuania and Finland) was required.
Samas otsustati, et enne rahulepingu sõlmimist tuleb selgitada Moskva tegelikke motiive, samuti oli rahu sõlmimiseks vajalik saada Antandi ja lähemate välispoliitilistepartnerite (Läti, Leedu ja Soome) nõusolekud.
