Agenda Profile: Anastassia Kovalenko-Kõlvart

The speaker expresses a critical stance regarding the state’s involvement in Nordica, emphasizing inadequate strategic objectives and weak control mechanisms. They directly question the necessity of having a national airline at all, drawing parallels with Estonian Air and pointing to the risk posed to taxpayer interests. The speaker notes that continuous losses and insufficient accountability demonstrate a need for transparency and a clear plan for the future; while not offering a specific alternative, they demand decisions and answers. Overall, the position is critical, with economic and strategic arguments taking precedence.

The presenter demonstrates expertise in state-owned enterprise management and aviation matters, specifically pointing out deficiencies in cooperation between the management board and the supervisory council, the structure for approving contracts, and the monitoring of strategic objectives. They cite the experience of Estonian Air and Nordica's loss (over 20 million euros) as examples requiring comprehensive auditing and oversight. The text includes specific references to the importance of information flow to the management board and the necessity of supervisory council reviews.

The address is direct and emphasizes state accountability, with a tone that is somewhat assertive and attention-grabbing; it frequently uses rhetorical questions and highlights taxpayer interests to maximize its impact. It is official in form but critical in substance, focusing on demanding facts and bringing core problems to the forefront.

Active presence within the same day: four addresses on the same day (2024-10-09), along with references to the special committee session and the planned information hour. The form of questions was repeatedly utilized to obtain answers and emphasize the necessity of parliamentary oversight. The text directly refers to the continuous attention paid to Nordica and the nation's aviation sector.

The position is highly critical of the actions taken by the government and the ministries: it cites deficiencies in leadership, non-adherence to established strategies, and the damaging of taxpayer interests. It stresses the necessity for transparency, accountability, and a comprehensive investigation; furthermore, it does not express support for the current policy or plan regarding the continuation or abandonment of Nordica.
