By Plenary Sessions: Mart Helme

There is not enough data.

Instead of focusing on social issues, a strong cultural and religious framework is employed, emphasizing Jerusalem's importance as the "cradle of Christianity" and the "capital of the Christian world." The speaker expresses emotional opposition to the city falling under Muslim control, referencing the motivations behind the Crusades. This is connected to the recognition and solidification of cultural identity.

The speaker strongly defends the social sector, opposing cuts to child and maternity benefits. They particularly sharply criticize the proposal to end pension indexation, warning that this would strip pensioners of the annual increase designed to offset the rising cost of living.

The primary social issue is the protection of citizens' constitutional rights and freedoms against potential over-regulation by the government and its officials. It is emphasized that constitutional rights must not be restricted due to shifts in political expediency or circumstances (such as climate goals).

The primary social theme is the demographic crisis and the survival of the nation, which is examined through the prism of fertility and social viability. The speaker emphasizes a worrying contingent, comprising individuals past fertile age, those who are antisocial, and those who do not have children, seeing them as a threat to the future of the Estonian people.

Among social issues, intense focus is placed on historical memory and the status of freedom fighters (the 1944 combatants), whom the speaker defends against being labeled as bandits. Strong emphasis is also placed on policing and security, criticizing illegal surveillance activities and the misuse of the Law Enforcement Act, while simultaneously stressing that the symbols of the occupation regime remain untouched in the Siselinna Cemetery.

It focuses on civil liberties and the right of citizens to determine their own lives, criticizing state intervention as a violation of the principles of a free state. It expresses concern over struggling communities and the resulting exodus of residents, which is attributed to restrictions placed on economic activity.
