The style of interaction is predominantly confrontational and critical, focused on exposing the activities of the government and the coalition parties.

There are no references to seeking compromises or inter-party cooperation.
05.2025

53 Speeches

The speaker shows no willingness to compromise with the governing coalition, but rather deepens the confrontation by calling the government's actions anti-state. He references other opposition politicians (Sibul, Helme, Epler) to support his arguments, pointing to the opposition's internal united front.
04.2025

26 Speeches

The style of cooperation is evident within the faction (submitting interpellations on his own behalf and on behalf of two faction members). He acknowledges the positions of other opposition politicians (e.g., Rain Epler, Erkki Keldo) and references the constitutional views of Jüri Adams. There is a complete absence of any reference to a willingness to compromise or cooperate with the coalition.
03.2025

01.2025

12 Speeches

There is no evidence of openness to compromise or cooperation with the governing parties. Cooperation is focused internally within the faction (the Elering working group) and toward an ideological ally in the USA (Trump). The government's actions regarding renewable energy subsidies are described as an agreement between three party leaders, aimed at the profit of businessmen, rather than cooperation within the Riigikogu.
12.2024

26 Speeches

The style of collaboration is fiercely confrontational, centered on exposing and condemning the actions of the coalition. Cooperation is referenced internally within the faction (among EKRE deputies) and externally with civil society organizations ("Estonian school is the home of the Estonian language"). There is a distinct lack of openness to compromise with the ruling parties, from whom they instead demand moral introspection.
11.2024

46 Speeches

The speaker primarily operates within the ranks of the opposition, supporting similar proposals put forward by other opposition parties (e.g., the Centre Party), such as lowering the VAT on foodstuffs. He defends other EU member states (Hungary) against criticism from the Estonian government. Cooperation is manifested through communicating the faction's decisions and supporting joint draft legislation.
10.2024

47 Speeches

The focus is aimed at the opposition (taking a recess on behalf of the EKRE faction) and critics of the government (referencing the budget criticism made by Reform Party member Aivar Sõerd). The tone when interacting with the government is confrontational and uncompromising, stressing that ministers are accountable to the Riigikogu.
09.2024

57 Speeches

Cooperation is evident between the faction and opposition colleagues (joint submission, support, and expansion of bills and topics), such as when presenting legislation concerning family benefits and kindergarten fees. Communication with the government is confrontational, focusing on exposing the government's mistakes rather than seeking compromises. There is a total lack of any sign of readiness for cross-party cooperation.
07.2024

31 Speeches

There is no data on cooperation; the speaker focuses exclusively on emphasizing the position of their faction (EKRE) and demonstrating opposition. Instead of cooperation, the activities of both the coalition and the Constitutional Committee are sharply criticized.
06.2024

27 Speeches

The style of cooperation is predominantly confrontational and focuses on obstructing the government's work through procedural means. Support is noted for a colleague (Heljo) for providing an objective overview of the committee's work, but broader cooperation with the coalition or other political parties is not mentioned. The party clearly declares that it will abolish the car tax once it comes to power, which precludes any compromise regarding the current draft bill.
05.2024

117 Speeches

Cooperation is evident within the faction itself (referencing Martin Helme and requesting additional time for discussion with him). When dealing with the government, the style is confrontational and accusatory, showing no openness to compromise.
04.2024

52 Speeches

Insufficient information. The speaker refers to their faction colleagues and supports the procedural remark made by another opposition member (Mart Helme), demonstrating unity within the faction and across the opposition. There is no evidence of openness to compromise or cross-party cooperation.
03.2024

34 Speeches

The speaker maintains a rigid opposition to the government coalition and shows no readiness for compromise. It is noted that while the speaker would support sound initiatives, the government never backs the opposition's draft legislation (for instance, proposals aimed at boosting the birth rate).
02.2024

12 Speeches

The speaker is collaborating with their party colleagues, having drafted an official query (interpellation) addressed to the Minister of Education alongside seven other MPs from the Conservative People's Party. There is no evidence of a willingness to compromise or engage in cross-party cooperation with the governing coalition; communication remains largely confrontational.
01.2024

61 Speeches

The speaker primarily operates as a representative of the opposition faction, defending the remarks made by their colleagues (such as Martin Helme) in the Riigikogu chamber. They point out that while there was cross-factional consensus in the committee regarding the objective of the draft Language Act (the protection of the Estonian language), a broader readiness to cooperate with the ruling parties is lacking.
