15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary session
The political focus is on demanding accountability for the financial failures of state-owned enterprises and major projects (Nordica, Eesti Energia). The speaker sharply criticizes a political culture where nobody is held responsible for the squandering of billions of euros, contrasting this with the accountability standards of the private sector. This position is strongly opposed to the government's inaction and is framed primarily as both value-based criticism (centered on accountability) and results-based criticism (focused on inefficiency).
