Fifteenth Estonian Parliament, fifth session, plenary session.
The main opponents are the parties of the ruling coalition (the Reform Party, Estonia 200, and the Social Democrats), who are accused of excluding cross-party cooperation and employing "steamroller politics." The Social Democrats are intensely accused of "clearly pro-Russian blackmail," to which the other coalition partners have yielded. The criticism is both policy-based and procedural, with critics suspecting the coalition has a hidden agenda to thwart the constitutional amendment.

The opposition is directed at the government's inaction or the lack of debate on a critical issue. However, the criticism is rather indirect and is expressed in the form of a question. There are no direct attacks leveled against the minister or the government; instead, they simply demand that the topic be brought up for discussion.

15th Riigikogu, 5th sitting, plenary session
The main criticism is directed against the government, which uses arguments (lack of money, waiting) to justify its inaction and postponement. The criticism is intense and policy-based, comparing the government's waiting to the catastrophic lack of preparations in 1940.
