By Plenary Sessions: Varro Vooglaid

The political position is strongly opposed to the draft bill concerning the forced dissolution of the Estonian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate and the Pühtitsa Convent. The speaker stresses that this is a disgrace that violates the fundamental principles of the rule of law and religious freedom. The position is clearly value-based, prioritizing constitutionality and tolerance, and arguing that the bill is emotional and appeals to base fears.

The political stance is heavily focused on increasing the compensation for reservists, viewing this as critical to the very foundations of national defense. The speaker criticizes the government's priorities, calling it disgraceful to spend billions on foreign arms corporations while simultaneously leaving reservists underpaid. This position is value-based, emphasizing respect and fair treatment for the people of Estonia.

Strong opposition to the government coalition's initiatives, especially the bill expanding the powers of the Party Financing Surveillance Committee (ERJK), which is deemed a "monstrosity" that violates the principle of the rule of law. The political position is vigorously value-based, emphasizing the need to restore the right of popular initiative, organize referendums, and legalize the direct election of the president. It criticizes the government for anti-family initiatives, tax hikes, and provocations that exacerbate the security situation. The entire activity of the government coalition is considered fundamentally misguided.

The political stance strongly focuses on valuing motherhood within national policy, considering it the foundation for the birth rate. The speaker criticizes the current situation where politicians only value motherhood in words, but fail to back it up with real action. This position is value-based and is geared towards considering specific fiscal policy measures.

The political position centers on fierce opposition to the restrictions and vaccination pressure imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic, demanding an independent investigation into the safety and quality of mRNA vaccines. The speaker stresses the importance of respecting constitutional rights and sharply criticizes the irresponsible conduct of the government and various agencies, particularly concerning the pressure exerted to vaccinate children. This stance is clearly value-based, calling for accountability and transparency, and is directed toward a critical analysis of the errors made during the pandemic.

The political position heavily focuses on increasing parliamentary scrutiny of the government, demanding the mandatory appearance of ministers before the Riigikogu’s investigative committees. This stance is principled, emphasizing the government’s accountability (its obligation to report) to the Riigikogu, and criticizing the discretion currently afforded in this matter. The framing is strongly procedural and value-based, stressing the universal character of the rules.

The political position centers on deep concern regarding the shift in Estonia's security doctrine, sharply criticizing anti-US rhetoric and the "needless provocation" directed at Russia. The speaker challenges the government's assertion that Estonia is better protected than ever before, and questions whether the security doctrine has shifted toward the European Union in ensuring national security. The stance is strongly value-driven, highlighting the lack of shared values with the new US administration.
