15th Estonian Parliament, 5th sitting, information briefing
The speaker adopts a clearly critical stance toward state-owned enterprises (SOEs), which, in his estimation, violate ethical norms and may be operating under a double standard. He demands consistency in the application of sanctions policy, stressing that SOEs should not receive preferential treatment compared to private businesses. The position is strongly critical and demands clear answers from the government.

15th Estonian Parliament, 5th session, plenary session.
The speaker consistently opposes the current coalition's tax hikes, particularly regarding the motor vehicle tax and the income tax benefit for high earners. He demands the retroactive repeal of the car tax and sharply criticizes the government's policy, which he argues harms the most vulnerable social groups—young families, pensioners, and large families. The speaker emphasizes that the Isamaa Party will only join a coalition that makes the repeal of the motor vehicle tax its very first priority.

15th Riigikogu, 5th sitting, plenary session
The speaker consistently adopts the stance of the left-wing opposition, strongly opposing the car tax and other proposed tax hikes. He criticizes the governing coalition's tax policy as a betrayal of voters, stressing that none of the coalition parties had promised to introduce the car tax before the election. He particularly champions the interests of families with children and residents of rural areas, arguing that the tax increases affect them disproportionately.
