By Plenary Sessions: Henn Põlluaas

The style is serious and urgent, posing a critical question about national defense strategy, which is driven by real-world conflict experience. Logical arguments are employed, based on examples from the war in Ukraine and the economic effectiveness of mines. The speaker uses a powerful metaphor, referring to mines as "the poor man's atomic bombs."

The rhetorical style is highly combative, accusatory, and emotional, repeatedly employing strong negative phrases such as "government of liars," "cynical," and "absurd." There is a strong appeal made regarding the well-being and livelihood of the Estonian people and families, and sharp rhetorical questions are posed concerning the government's motives. The style itself is formal, but the substance is extremely critical, focusing on morality and procedural injustice.

The rhetorical style is confrontational, critical, and insistent, employing repeated questions and accusations regarding the government’s inaction. The speaker utilizes powerful and ironic analogies (e.g., murderers and pedophiles vs. pornography) and a rhetorical question ("one big Euro-family together") to underscore the importance of national legislation. The tone is formal yet emotionally charged, highlighting the economic emergency.
