The criticism is aimed at state institutions and ministries that have either failed to adequately address the disappearance of regional services or have made poor planning decisions (for example, regarding the trains on the Rohuküla line). On the topic of education, the ministry is criticized (for the lack of negotiations) along with the local authority (the Valga municipal government) for implementing incompetent and unprepared policies, which critics refer to as "human experiments" in schools.

6 Speeches
There is no direct confrontation with specific political opponents. Instead, indirect, yet sharp criticism is leveled at the deficiencies in the state's administrative system and the lack of inter-agency communication. This is illustrated by the example of registering a young person with special needs as a military conscript, which serves to highlight a fundamental flaw in the system.

At the same time, it is emphasized that communication with Georgia must not be completely severed, in order to prevent Russia from becoming the sole communication partner.
