Session Profile: Priit Sibul

The political focus is heavily concentrated on border security and the development of the eastern border, particularly concerning drone defense capabilities and their funding. The politician is demanding clarity regarding deadlines and the sources of funding (EU vs. state budget), while stressing the actual current status of the project. There is strong criticism directed at the inefficiency and unfulfilled promises of previous governments, though the current minister's strategy of involving European Union resources is supported. The political framework is primarily results-oriented and performance-based, requiring specific solutions and firm deadlines.

The speaker demonstrates expertise regarding technological solutions for border control (the "drone wall," IT solutions) and their financing, referencing specific figures (around 17 million) and the objectives of the funding projects. He clearly differentiates between physical border infrastructure, information technology solutions, and the capability for drone detection and countermeasures. Furthermore, he is knowledgeable about Estonia's domestic capacity for drone development.

The rhetorical style is detailed, questioning, and demanding, focusing heavily on facts, deadlines, and contradictions (such as the true objective of the funding). It employs critical and sarcastic language directed at former politicians ("Defense Minister Pevkur ordering drones from China with 'hocus pocus'"). The overall tone is formal, yet deeply concerned about both the delays in completing the border and the government's lack of knowledge regarding current surveillance systems.

The speaker is active during the briefing, responding quickly and thoroughly to recent media reports and developments (for instance, the funding decision made at the beginning of April and the camera surveillance issue that was topical on the very same day). They use their time to bring up several related but separate security issues, demonstrating continuous engagement with current internal security matters.

The main criticism is directed at Hanno Pevkur, the former Minister of the Interior and current Minister of Defence. He is accused of failing to deliver on promises regarding border infrastructure development and prioritizing the procurement of Chinese drones instead of domestic solutions. Criticism is also leveled against the government for its lack of transparency and ignorance concerning the secret camera systems, which caught both the Prime Minister and another politician (Pakosta) by surprise.

It supports international cooperation and the mobilization of European Union resources to solve common border problems, deeming this an "entirely reasonable" strategy. Cooperation is primarily envisioned with partner countries (Lithuania) for sharing experiences in resolving similar issues.

The primary focus is on the national external border (the eastern border) and its security. Furthermore, emphasis is placed on utilizing the capabilities of Estonian domestic entrepreneurship and drone development in creating internal security solutions.

It strongly supports domestic enterprise and innovation, insisting that the expertise and skills of Estonian businesses in drone development be utilized within the internal security sector. It criticizes public procurements that favor foreign (Chinese) suppliers over local companies.

It focuses on security and surveillance issues. It raises concerns about the lack of transparency surrounding camera systems that are capable of monitoring citizens on a daily basis, demanding clarification regarding the purpose and future of these systems.

The focus is on overseeing the implementation of existing government projects (border construction, drone capabilities), ensuring political accountability, and clarifying deadlines. Specific legislative bills or amendments are not mentioned; the activity is directed toward controlling the executive branch.
