The style is formal and analytical, encompassing both recognition of the minister's work and critical, data-driven analysis concerning the budget. Historical comparisons are employed (the history of salary increases under various ministers) and experts (architectural historian Mart Kalm) are quoted to support regional arguments.

The rhetorical style is formal and analytical, blending logical arguments (such as the waste of resources and legal precedents) with emotional appeals (like describing the situation as "inhumane" or referencing the psychological state of the children). Proponents draw a historical parallel to the experience of Estonian refugees in Sweden between 1944 and 1950. The debate is sharp at times, focusing on opposing viewpoints concerning integration versus segregation.
