By Plenary Sessions: Urmas Reinsalu

The collaborative style is appreciative and supportive, praising the colleague’s initiative and pertinent question. The speaker emphasizes the parliament’s collective ability to find a solution (the ability, as a parliament, to find a comprehensive solution) and seeks dialogue regarding strategic choices.

The speaker addresses the Chancellor of Justice with respect, recognizing his proposal as "highly substantive and concrete." He is seeking a legal assessment from the Chancellor of Justice regarding whether the government's actions are in compliance with the principles of the rule of law.

The style of cooperation is conditional and pragmatic: the coalition is being offered the opportunity to abolish the car tax in exchange for the cancellation of the Reform Party's tax hump. It is emphasized that Isamaa will not agree to a progressive income tax or any new tax burdens.

The speaker offers conditional support to the government on critical national defense matters, provided they align with the advice given by the Commander of the Defense Forces. At the same time, it is emphasized that the ruling coalition has refused to cooperate, having voted down Isamaa’s proposals for the faster procurement of ammunition during the processing of the 2025 budget.

The speaker emphasizes the necessity of adhering to military advice (from the Commander of the Defence Forces) and calls on parliament to vote "according to conscience and national interests," thereby seeking support across coalition lines. He advocates active cooperation at the European level (using the ex-ante model and structural funds) to change the rules governing the financing of defense investments, citing the potential support of Lithuania and Germany.

Cooperation is discussed within the context of Isamaa, with promises to reverse the government's decisions and thereby offer the public a sense of security. There is a complete lack of reference to a willingness to compromise or seeking cross-party cooperation on the issues being addressed. The focus is confrontational, and they promise an end to poor policy.

The speaker stresses the potential for cooperation with the parliamentary majority (over four-fifths) that supports terminating the voting rights of non-citizens. However, he simultaneously confirms that the coalition has neither involved the opposition in this process nor initiated a dialogue, noting that they are receiving information only from public sources.

Cooperation with political partners is not discussed, but the speaker leans heavily on external expertise and interest groups, specifically citing the Chamber of Commerce and Industry and energy experts. Critical recommendations are put forward to the government—for instance, lifting CO2 restrictions on oil shale power plants—but there is no apparent willingness to compromise with the government.
