Fifteenth Riigikogu, sixth sitting, plenary sitting.
The speaker indirectly addresses opponents who fear the restriction of human rights and mass surveillance, conceding that every tool has consequences. He criticizes the viewpoint that equates the recording of a random number with the suffering experienced by a crime victim. The resistance is political, and he emphasizes that this opposition fosters a sense of impunity among criminals.

15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary session
The speaker directly criticizes two colleagues: Riina Solman, for factual inaccuracy regarding the flags in Lasnamäe, and Henn Põlluaas, for his ideological position.

15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary sitting
The main criticism is directed at the Centre Party, whose draft bill is being called populist, lacking in analysis, and short-sighted.

Furthermore, the opposition is criticized for its attendance patterns in the chamber and its apparent lack of interest in the debate.
2025-02-11
15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary sitting
