Fifteenth Riigikogu, Fifth Session, Plenary Session.
The style of discourse is formal, analytical, and defensive, focusing on establishing clarity and certainty within policy domains. Logical arguments and data (percentages, financial indicators) are employed to rebut counterarguments. Although the style is predominantly matter-of-fact, sharper language is also used when addressing criticism, referring to certain claims circulated by the opposition as "quite absurd statements."

15th Riigikogu, 5th sitting, plenary session
The style is formal and respectful, encompassing both technical argumentation (such as the impact assessment process) and value-based appeals (nature as the paramount value). One presenter is concise and emphasizes collaboration, while the other is more detailed and employs sharp moral condemnation, specifically denouncing the drawing of parallels with the 1940s within the Riigikogu chamber.

15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary sitting
The rhetorical style is confident, optimistic, and data-driven, emphasizing the positive nature of achievements ("ultra-positive"). The speaker begins by refuting the opponents' false claims, but then proceeds to present logical arguments and specific costs (e.g., 13 euros per year). The tone is formal and focuses on facts rather than emotional appeals.
