By Plenary Sessions: Helir-Valdor Seeder

The rhetoric is insistent, critical, and highly aggressive, stressing the security threat and leveling accusations against the opposition for inaction and "idiotic solutions." Strong emotional language is deployed (e.g., "completely absurd," "horse-trading," "political gamesmanship"), and the necessity of resolving the situation quickly is underscored, given that "the war is ongoing."

The rhetorical style is combative and critical, employing strong emotional language, such as "tax war" and "terribly unfair." The speaker balances these emotional appeals (highlighting the injustice faced by families with children and rural residents) with logical arguments (retroactive taxation and the absence of an impact analysis). The minister is portrayed as a routine responder—a "tankist"—who fails to provide adequate answers, and the necessity of resolving procedural issues (sound quality) is underscored.

The rhetorical style is critical and questioning, repeatedly expressing confusion regarding the government's policy ("I do not understand"). Logical argumentation is employed, citing contradictory statements made by ministers and the text of the draft legislation to highlight the government's inconsistent position. The tone is formal, yet it also contains an emotional appeal (the hope that the government is not engaging in deception).

The rhetorical style is critical and direct, using strong language, such as "stupidity," to characterize the government's tax policy. The speaker uses both procedural logic (the structure of the Q&A session) and economic arguments (competitiveness and livelihood) to substantiate their views. The tone is formal, but it contains a sharp political attack.

The rhetorical style is serious, forceful, and critical, emphasizing the anxiety caused in society by the government's contradictory messages. The appeals are primarily logical and fact-based, utilizing references to KAPO, studies, and historical examples (30 years for the transition to Estonian-language education). The speaker stresses the importance of open discussion in the Riigikogu hall, prioritizing it over written questions.
