By Plenary Sessions: Helle-Moonika Helme

The speaker is vehemently opposed to circumventing sanctions for the sake of short-term profit, indicating support for strict regulations and the enforcement of international trade restrictions. Economic interests (the Stark Logistics business) are clearly subordinated to security and moral considerations.

The economic perspectives emphasize the principles of the free market and oppose government subsidies for the business sector, particularly for renewable energy, labeling such support a non-market scheme. It advocates for redirecting billions in investments away from infrastructure and toward social policy and family support.

He/She is strongly opposed to tax increases and criticizes government measures that worsen the standard of living and reduce people's financial stability. He/She opposes ending the indexation of pensions and cutting family benefits, stressing the detrimental effect these measures have on women.

Economic perspectives emphasize the need to abandon the wasteful green transition and redirect billions into security, opposing fiscal puritanism. Criticism is leveled at the government's hypocrisy regarding indexation, where they support protecting the profits of wind farm developers but cut back on pensions and defense spending.

Economic views center on the transparency of public spending and anti-corruption efforts. They criticize government decisions that seem to favor major sponsors in the IT sector (Nortal, Bolt). Opposition is also voiced against the proposed car tax, citing its unconstitutionality, and the financial mismanagement involving Nordica is strongly condemned.

He/She is critical of the government subsidies aimed at specific sectors (startups, the film industry), viewing them as the result of lobbying efforts. He/She opposes the fast-track procedure for short-term employment, fearing it will turn the country into an "immigration pump." He/She prefers genuine startups ("garage boys") over large companies that are already established in the market.

The speaker is vehemently opposed to increasing the tax burden and criticizes the government’s assertions that people will retain more disposable income despite the introduction of new taxes. Furthermore, he/she questions the Ministry of Education’s alleged savings of 300,000 euros, which were supposedly earmarked for specialists’ salaries, citing the creation of new centralized positions.

The economic views are characterized by strong opposition to corruption and unethical profits. The speaker sharply criticizes those who outrageously profiteered from vaccines while simultaneously skimping on costly and necessary research, labeling this an economic and corruption crime.

Insufficient data.

Economic views are strongly opposed to tax increases, as the speaker believes these have caused a long-term economic decline (11 consecutive quarters). Criticism is leveled against the implementation of income tax, VAT, excises (petrol, diesel, gas), and new taxes (the car tax, security tax, and corporate profit tax). The government's promise to revert to a simple income tax system is considered a deception.

Economic perspectives highlight the necessity of protecting public assets and demanding accountability for the financial management of state-owned enterprises. The speaker is vehemently opposed to financial irregularities and corruption, which undermine the asset base.
