Government Decisions

15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, press briefing

The main opponent of the current ruling coalition’s car tax argues that the criticism is political and immediately targets the policy itself. The critic accuses the policy behind the bill and asserts that it constitutes an injustice, unfairly burdening specific influential groups. The criticism also extends to the government's focus on security and infrastructure, pointing out that the tax revenue is associated with implementation difficulties and inadequate analysis. This constitutes an intense attack against political decisions and the current leadership. Potential compromises are mentioned in the article only in the form of alternative taxation methods (e.g., a windfall tax).
