15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary session
The most crucial issue is amending the constitution to restrict voting rights in local elections exclusively to Estonian citizens, a necessity driven by the changed security environment. The speaker strongly backs this change, stressing that the right to form political power must reside with the constitutional authority, and that this is not simply a matter of local governance. They criticize the parliament's previous inaction and the time wasted in addressing this vital security aspect. Although the compromise proposal is viewed as imperfect from a security perspective, it is being supported for the sake of achieving broad consensus.
