By Plenary Sessions: Kalle Grünthal

The political stance is strongly oppositional toward the government’s actions, especially regarding tax hikes (the "tax axe") and the funding of foreign aid. Emphasis is placed on the strict adherence to good legislative practices, demanding that all draft legislation include a formal statement of intent (or drafting plan). These positions are value-based, focusing on prioritizing the interests of the Estonian taxpayer and residents in the national allocation of funds. Strong opposition exists both on substantive issues (such as raising fines) and regarding procedural violations.

The political position is strongly oppositional, focusing on resistance to the government’s economic policy and the climate goals set by the European Union. Climate policy is viewed as fabricated propaganda pulled out of thin air and a massive business scheme that has resulted in the destruction of the Estonian economy and widespread corporate bankruptcies. Prime Minister Kaja Kallas’s actions are sarcastically characterized as the work of a "genius" in the complete destruction of the nation’s economy.

The political position is extremely critical, focusing on adherence to the procedural norms of the Riigikogu and the Constitution. The speaker strongly opposes the draft election law, asserting that it violates Article 60 of the Constitution (uniformity and secrecy of elections). This stance is strongly value-based and aimed at institutional integrity, accusing the Presidium of continuously violating the law.

The political focus centers on the government's lack of transparency, particularly concerning the negotiations for the WHO pandemic treaty, and on social security issues stemming from the alleged crimes committed by allied forces in Võrumaa. The speaker adopts a fiercely confrontational stance, accusing the government of breaking its promises and concealing vital information. Their entire framework is heavily geared toward criticizing the government's activities and overall performance.

The political position focuses on strong support for the viability of rural areas and the preservation of libraries, which is presented as a guarantee for the survival of rural life. The speaker sharply criticizes the minister's assessment of the situation, arguing that the problem of library closures is actually serious and widespread. The stance is value-based, emphasizing the importance of community infrastructure.

The political position focuses heavily on the procedural correctness of the legislation and the stability of the voting requirements. The speaker emphasizes the majority of the Riigikogu (Parliament) composition required for the bill to move forward. Furthermore, they raise the question of the validity of this requirement in connection with a complaint being filed with the Supreme Court, seeking clarity regarding the subsequent steps. This represents a procedure-based approach aimed at achieving legal certainty.

The political position focuses on the legality of foreign policy and diplomatic activity. The speaker strongly opposes the interference of diplomats in the internal affairs of the host country, considering this a violation of the Estonian Foreign Service Act. The position is strongly oriented towards political and legal norms, demanding strict adherence to the law.

The political focus is centered on the Riigikogu (Estonian Parliament) election procedures and voting rules. The speaker voices skepticism and demands clarification on why the required majority for election (simple majority of votes cast versus an absolute majority of the composition) deviates from conventional practice. The position taken is procedurally cautious, stressing the necessity of adhering to established norms.

The political position is strongly focused on ensuring the principles of the rule of law and accountability, while criticizing the Prosecutor's Office for its inaction regarding legal violations. Furthermore, there is opposition to the disregard of the Riigikogu's procedural rules, demanding adherence to the constitution concerning voting requirements and holding government members accountable for making false statements. The focus is heavily directed towards evaluating the effectiveness and legality of the actions taken by the government and the justice system, as well as the organization of parliamentary work.

The political focus is on procedural correctness and ensuring legality within the work of the Riigikogu (Parliament), stressing that committee decisions must not contravene existing law. The speaker is strongly opposed to the committee's decision requiring a majority vote of the full Riigikogu membership to adopt the proposal to withdraw the motor vehicle tax bill. This position is firmly grounded in legal norms and the opinion provided by the Riigikogu Legal and Analysis Department. This implicitly supports abandoning the implementation of the car tax.

The political stance is strongly anti-government, focusing on broken promises regarding family benefits and emphasizing government accountability. It is stressed that the government’s actions (an avalanche of tax hikes) contradict the special care for large families outlined in Article 28 of the Constitution. The position is heavily value- and results-driven, criticizing the head of government for evading responsibility.
