Tartu Peace Treaty was signed on February 2, 1920, between Estonia and Soviet Russia. Russia agreed to recognize Estonia's independence and the borders of its territory. With the signing of the treaty, Estonia's War of Independence came to an end. To mark the occasion, the commemoration event was held by the Jaan Poska monument in Kadriorg Park, in Tallinn. The opening words of the event were given by the Estonian Minister of Foreign Affairs Margus Tsahkna who referred in his speech that the signing of the Tartu Peace Treaty marked the start of Estonia’s statehood but also the victory of Estonian diplomacy. Among others, the Czech Ambassador David Král, laid a wreath at the foot of the statue of Poska on behalf of the Tallinn Diplomatic Corps. Musical interludes were performed by the Estonian Military Orchestra.

In 2020, the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs started a tradition to recognize with the Jaan Poska Medal persons who have outstanding merits in protecting the principles of Estonia's historic peace treaty internationally. The award is named for Jaan Poska, who was appointed the newly independent Republic of Estonia's first minister of foreign affairs. This year, the reception, where the award was presented, was held at Lillepaviljon. Minister Margus Tsahkna presented the Jaan Poska Medal to former President Toomas Hendrik Ilves, who led and supported the process of Estonia joining both NATO and the European Union, and posthumously to Laas Leivat, whose importance in preserving the de jure recognition of the Republic of Estonia in the West and restoring Estonia's independence based on legal continuity was invaluable.
