15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary sitting
The political focus is on the quality of legislation and the importance of long-term planning (the "long plan"). The speaker supports the importance of the Climate Law topic but strongly opposes rushing the process and the lack of substantive preparation. The criticism is aimed at a procedure that resembles the principle of "rush it through, and we'll see what happens later."

15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary session
The speaker, representing the Social Democrats, strongly supports the proposed legislation regarding the regulation of large carnivore (wolf) populations in order to resolve conflicts with humans. This political position is rooted in both values and policy, emphasizing the necessity of maintaining population numbers within the bounds of social tolerance while ensuring the species continues to fulfill its ecological role. Support for the bill is justified by the need to address the peculiar situation where intervention targeting specific problem individuals is currently impossible.
