15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary session
The speaker firmly advocates for state control and ownership of strategic assets (including nuclear power plants and mineral resources), stressing its fundamental importance for the nation's energy independence. The political position is directed against the government's rapid tax hikes, while simultaneously supporting food security and domestic production. These standpoints are strongly value-based, focusing on protecting the interests of the state and the people over those of large corporations.

15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary session
The political stance centers on strong opposition to the existing e-voting system, which is deemed procedurally unreliable. The speaker frames the issue of e-elections from a values-based perspective, drawing direct and critical parallels with Russian e-voting practices. The core criticism is that the argument of convenience overshadows the system's dramatic, result-altering deficiencies.

15th Riigikogu, 3rd sitting, information briefing
The political position is strongly critical of the government’s tax policy, specifically opposing the sweeping tax hikes and the abolition of the income tax step, which are considered unacceptable. Another crucial topic is international security, where we demand vigorous action to counter the threat of Islamic terrorism and ensure the expulsion of individuals with questionable backgrounds from Europe.

15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary session
The most notable stance is the strong procedural activity demonstrated in the Riigikogu chamber, repeatedly demanding that votes be held. Regarding substantive issues, the speaker clearly supports the continuation of the Estonian consulates in San Francisco and New York, stressing the necessity of backing this proposal with a formal vote. These positions are primarily procedural and politically motivated, representing the interests of the EKRE parliamentary group.

15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary session
The political position is strongly opposed to tax hikes, especially given the current economic situation. All new taxes (the sugar tax, car tax, and mobile tax) are viewed as part of the government’s "craving for a soft dictatorship." The political framework is value-based, emphasizing a preference for free choice and positive promotion over prohibitions and taxation.
