15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary session
The tone of the speech is very serious, formal, and urgent, emphasizing that this is an "historic moment and choice." The appeal is primarily logical and fact-based, relying on security analysis (war near the borders) and legal justification (it is impossible to resolve without amending the constitution). Figurative expressions are used, such as "an inside-out sunrise or sunset" when describing the compromise, and the audience is urged to vote according to their conscience.

The 15th Riigikogu, fifth sitting, information briefing.
The style in the first speech is sharply confrontational and emotionally charged, utilizing phrases such as "tax war" and "terrible bureaucracy." In the second speech, the tone shifts to formal, and the questions are aimed at clarifying specific numerical targets (a 20% reduction of officials) and agreements (R&D funding). Sarcasm is employed when referring to the Prime Minister’s "glorious shared history" in leading Nordica into bankruptcy.
