15th Riigikogu, 4th session, plenary sitting
The main criticized adversary is Russia (the Russian Empire/Soviet Union), which is accused of continuing a centuries-long policy of genocide. The criticism is rooted in policy and values, addressing persecution, detentions, and the destruction of the Crimean Tatars' identity. The speaker rules out any tolerance toward these actions.

Fifteenth Riigikogu, fourth session, plenary session
Specific opponents or opposition groups are neither criticized nor named. Implicit criticism is directed at those who might tire of supporting Ukraine or who would try to cut corners on defense spending, which would ultimately carry too high a price.

15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary sitting
The opposition is directed at the amendment proposals from the Centre Party and Isamaa factions, which were rejected by the committee. The Centre Party is criticized for not submitting specific proposals for reductions, but instead wanting to completely omit the provisions for raising fees from the draft bill. The criticism is policy- and procedure-focused.

Fifteenth Riigikogu, Third Session, Plenary Session.
The standoff is indirect, manifesting through the referencing of critical questions posed by colleagues (Pakosta, Kovalenko-Kõlvart) concerning the sharp rise in state fees. The criticism is immediately softened by presenting the ministry's policy- and cost-based justifications, for instance, explaining the high price of fast-track proceedings by pointing to their reduced duration.
