15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary session
He/She strongly advocates for amending the constitution to restrict the voting rights of non-citizens and stateless persons in local elections, framing it as an issue of state sovereignty and internal security. Although preferring the "pure option" (only for Estonian citizens), he/she supports a compromise (a sunset clause) to ensure the passage of the bill. The political framework is value-based, focusing on defining suffrage as a civil right and addressing the failure of integration. He/She believes that the external environment has provided a specific time window for making this decision, thereby justifying the urgency.
