The main criticism is directed at the Isamaa party and its members (Aivar Kokk, Urmas Reinsalu). The criticism is policy-based, focusing on the juggling of numbers and the misunderstanding of the zero-budget concept. Reinsalu is also criticized for potential hypocrisy, as he praised the 100 million in support for Ukraine but may vote against the budget.

The criticism is aimed primarily at the quality of the state's strategic planning and budget metrics, which he deems absurd and ridiculous. He also points to the "orthodox fans" of cost-based budgeting, describing them as opposing forces who resist the activity-based approach. He avoids criticizing specific political opponents by name, choosing instead to focus on procedural and substantive flaws.

Direct opponents or parties are not criticized by name; instead, the criticism is aimed at earlier habitual state activities and bureaucracy, which have thrown public finances out of balance. The speaker criticizes actions taken purely out of habit, the necessity of which has never been questioned.

The speaker does not criticize any opposing side or group; on the contrary, he emphasizes that there were neither questions nor comments regarding the Minister of Finance's report. This points to complete consensus and a lack of opposition on the topic addressed. The data is insufficient to characterize the nature of the confrontation.

The speaker himself does not voice direct opposition; instead, he neutrally relays the criticism that was leveled against the draft bill in the Finance Committee. This criticism primarily focused on the general philosophical principles of taxation, the budgetary impact, and the functioning of the market economy (Jürgen Ligi's views). Furthermore, the draft bill was criticized for lacking an accompanying impact analysis.

No direct confrontation is voiced, but the speaker answers questions raised by colleagues (Aivar Sõerd, Rain Epler) regarding the details and significance of the agreement. The criticism is rather policy-based and procedural, focusing on justifying the 12.5% withholding tax rate.
