By Plenary Sessions: Leo Kunnas

The political emphasis is on creating a comprehensive and broad-based national defense strategy extending to 2045, while simultaneously criticizing previous short-sighted and inadequate development plans. The speaker urgently demands the drafting of a new emergency development plan covering the period until 2034, which must encompass all five security domains, not solely military defense. He stresses that moving toward budget balance is dangerous in the current security environment and necessitates increased borrowing. This stance is rooted in policy and strategic management principles.

The political position focuses on demographic sustainability and the management of quotas for the immigration and settlement of foreign-origin populations. The speaker emphasizes quantitative restrictions (a 0.1% annual quota, 130,000 people per century) and refers to the Soviet-era legacy. This stance is cautious and policy-based, expressing concern about the state's capacity to integrate these individuals into society.

The political focus is currently on the proposed car tax bill and the implementation of its exemptions. The speaker is challenging the narrow definition of ‘operational vehicles,’ strongly advocating for a full tax exemption for all vehicles belonging to national defense and internal security institutions (the Police and Border Guard Board (PPA), the Rescue Board, the Defense Forces, and the Defense League). This stance is rooted in policy and implementation concerns, focusing specifically on practical deficiencies within the draft legislation.
