Thanks - that gives me ESTONIAN as well, which in turn gives me ANNEXE.

How about:

Nothing's required in order to make this instrument (4): O _ O _ (plainly OBOE but why?)

Balloon with short distance to finish (7): D _ S _ E _ D (looks like DESCEND but again, why?)

Punishment leads to further injustice no-one expects (4): _ I _ E

The last one could be ESTONIAN (South Pole = S inside ETONIAN but you didn't give the number of letters

The balloon one is DISTEND

Short distance is DIST, finish is END, gives DISTEND = balloon
