15th Riigikogu, extraordinary session of the Riigikogu
The primary opponent is the Government of the Republic and the ruling coalition, who are criticized for poor political choices and a leadership crisis that has driven Estonia into a tax war against its own people. The criticism is directed both at the political substance (the car tax contradicts security policy) and the procedures (the unconstitutional linking of amendments). Instead of compromise, the demand is to halt the reading of the draft legislation entirely.
