By Plenary Sessions: Tiit Maran

The political stance is strongly value-driven and action-oriented, focusing on the imperative necessity of addressing climate change and the resulting "polycrisis" (including biodiversity loss and disruptions to material cycles). Emphasis is placed on the need for an appropriate response, centering solutions around people first and then the economy, while questioning the sustainability of the current growth-centric economic model. The speaker represents the positions of the Social Democrats, underscoring that there is no alternative but to act.

The speaker strongly emphasized issues of security (Ukraine’s victory, EU defense capability) and economic competitiveness, aligning with the needs raised by the prime minister. The primary political criticism targets the government’s handling of the economy, which isolates the economy from its social and natural context, stressing the necessity of environmentally sustainable development. These positions are deeply value-based, particularly concerning the environment and security, warning of severe consequences should these principles be ignored.
