The speaker works closely with colleagues in his faction (EKRE), submitting joint interpellations and draft legislation. He also refers to cooperation with other opposition parties (for instance, when filing motions of no confidence). He describes the government's actions concerning MPEÕK as "tyrannizing" and a "mafia-like approach," which indicates that he does not view the "dialogue" offered by the government as genuine.

Shows openness to substantive cooperation, especially on non-political issues (e.g., protecting children from pornography, oversight of the prosecutor's office), but notes that the coalition has systematically refused to support the opposition's draft legislation. It called on coalition members to vote according to their conscience, not based on factional directives, in order to improve parliamentary culture. It cooperates with other opposition factions (e.g., the Centre Party) on the issue of e-elections.
