By Plenary Sessions: Vladimir Arhipov

The political position is vehemently opposed to the rushed closure of the border crossing points with Russia, viewing the proposed bill as a mere political slogan that disregards the actual consequences. It is stressed that decisions made by the Riigikogu (Parliament) must consider the lives of real people, rather than just ideological noise. This stance is deeply rooted in policy and values, demanding strategic leadership and foresight.

The most crucial issue is the confidentiality and security of e-voting. The speaker adopts a critical stance, stressing that e-voting might not guarantee a secret ballot, as voters could be influenced by outside parties. This position is principle-based and clearly supports ending e-voting.

The political position is strongly opposed to the car tax, demanding its complete abolition, not merely adjustment. This stance is driven both by economic failure (revenue collection is lower than planned) and by a value-based framework that views the tax as a punishment for working, maintaining a family life, and residing in rural areas. The political focus is centered on criticizing the government's budgetary policy and the lack of trust.

The political position is deeply critical of the results of the current care reform, stressing that the reform has failed because it increased the burden on local governments and families. The criticism targets the actual performance of the policy, highlighting the discrepancy between the promises made (reducing the burden, improving accessibility) and the reality on the ground (rising prices, higher costs for municipalities). The speaker demands accountability and intervention from the state to ensure that care homes remain accessible despite the rising costs.

The political position is strongly opposed to the presented draft law, which is considered damaging to Estonia's reputation and fundamentally dangerous, despite its branding as a "success story." The content of the bill has been assessed as "a piece of candy with a very bitter aftertaste." This position is strongly value-based, emphasizing national security and the safeguarding of the country's image.

The political focus is strongly directed toward social justice and supporting vulnerable groups (pensioners, people experiencing economic hardship). Immediate and symbolically significant steps are being demanded, such as a pension supplement and raising the shamefully low subsistence level. The political stance is value-based, emphasizing the necessity of a just and humane state. Swift action is also required in regulating public safety.
