The main opponents are the Social Democrats (Sotsid), who are accused of protecting the interests of ‘grey passport holders’ (stateless residents) and acting against the interests of the Estonian state.

The criticism is intense, accusing opponents of destroying the state and posing a security threat.

The main opponent is the Reform Party government and the prime minister, who are being blamed for the economic recession, corruption, and the impoverishment of the nation. The criticism is intense, covering both policy issues (tax hikes, giving away resources) and personal behavior (the prime minister's "delusions" and detachment from reality). There is no sign of willingness to compromise; instead, answers and revelations are being demanded.

15th Riigikogu, 4th session, plenary session
The confrontation is directed at "liberals" and specific colleagues (e.g., Tanel Kiik), whose arguments (local clinics, abortion migration, access for the poor) are considered false or irrelevant. The speaker sharply criticizes the state and the government, accusing them of impoverishing families (cutting benefits, car tax) and subsequently financing abortion as an ironic form of "aid."

Fifteenth Riigikogu, fourth session, plenary session
