By Plenary Sessions: Aivar Kokk

A deeply anti-coalition stance against the current government, particularly regarding the policies of the Reform Party. It strongly opposes tax increases and cuts to support for vulnerable groups, emphasizing that the coalition "takes from the weak and gives to the rich." It firmly supports restrictions on voting rights tied to Estonian citizenship, citing Moldova and Georgia as cautionary examples.

The speaker takes a clearly critical stance regarding the Rail Baltic project, strongly emphasizing the need for budgetary transparency and accountability. He supports developing road infrastructure instead of Rail Baltic, claiming that the state is violating commitments made to the European Union concerning the construction of 2+2 highways. The speaker admits that he actually voted against the ratification of Rail Baltic in 2017.

The speaker adopts a clearly oppositional stance toward the government’s fiscal policy, sharply criticizing the 2025 state budget as "confidence-destroying" and opaque. While strongly supporting increased defense spending, the speaker asserts that the revenue collected via the security tax is not actually allocated to defense but is instead used to finance income tax breaks for high earners. The speaker consistently champions the interests of vulnerable groups (pensioners, parents, large families), opposing cuts to their benefits.

Clearly articulates a critical stance on energy policy, highlighting the doubling of electricity price increases since 2020. It strongly supports dispatchable energy solutions, especially the use of pellet fuel when converting old oil shale boilers. It expresses moderate support for renewable energy but emphasizes the necessity of dispatchable energy to guarantee energy security.

The speaker, representing the Isamaa Party, takes a strong opposition stance, clearly targeting left-wing taxation. Their core political platform centers on abolishing the motor vehicle tax, which they label "the most hostile tax next to the land tax." The speaker categorically vows that Isamaa will only join a coalition that repeals the car tax, demonstrating an uncompromising approach to the issue.

The speaker adopts a clearly oppositional stance toward the government's economic policy, strongly criticizing the Reform Party's tax policy. The main points of contention focus on rising energy prices, the increasing costs of infrastructure projects, and the unfairness of the tax reforms. The speaker asserts that the government favors high-income earners through income tax exemptions while taking more money from the poor, offering an alternative austerity plan.
