15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary session
The main confrontation is with the EKRE faction, which is criticized for submitting obstructionist and insincere amendments that hinder the work of the Riigikogu. The criticism is procedural, emphasizing that the submission of a large volume of insincere proposals is not in line with the Riigikogu Rules of Procedure and Internal Rules Act. The opposition's proposals (with the exception of one stylistic proposal by Varro Vooglaid) were disregarded.

It is also stressed that the recommendations of critics (including the OSCE) have always been taken into account.
