Fifteenth Riigikogu, sixth sitting, plenary sitting.
The primary criticism is directed at the majority in the Riigikogu, who vehemently voted against the establishment of the Rail Baltic investigative committee, citing procedural obstruction. Estonian media is also criticized, which, in the speaker's estimation, is either unwilling to cover or actively prevents the coverage of the issues faced by landowners.

15th Riigikogu, 6th session, plenary session
The criticism is aimed at the government policy represented by the minister, particularly regarding the centralization of services and the inconvenient payment solutions implemented by the PPA (Police and Border Guard Board). The opposition is political, focusing on the negative effects of these administrative decisions on citizens, and accuses the state of shifting costs onto private individuals.

15th Riigikogu, 6th sitting, plenary session.
The primary target is the Minister of Defence, who is being criticized for both substantive issues (such as the lack of resources and the state of the Defence League) and procedural missteps. The criticism is intense, demanding that the minister acknowledge the problems—to "put on sackcloth and ashes" (i.e., admit fault)—and refrain from delivering an overly optimistic report.

15th Riigikogu, extraordinary session of the Riigikogu
The criticism is mainly aimed at the governing coalition and the chairpersons of the Riigikogu sessions. The government is criticized for incomplete draft legislation and a lack of proper analysis (the car tax), as well as for the low level of political culture. The chairpersons are criticized for incompetent session management, bias, and a lack of courage to intervene when dealing with ministers.
