15th Riigikogu, Riigikogu extraordinary session.
Strong opposition is targeting the politician in question and his new party, the Social Democrats, particularly concerning the stances taken by Lauri Läänemets. The criticism is both ideological and personal, focusing on the inconsistency between previous positions and current claims, and raising the question of whether the target has actually adjusted his views. The intensity of the opposition is high, directly suggesting a motion of no confidence.

15th Riigikogu, extraordinary session of the Riigikogu
The main opponents are the Reform Party (nicknamed "the Squirrels") and the Social Democrats ("the Sots"), who are accused of opportunism, lacking ideological backbone, and acting purely to remain in power ("the Sots' dictate"). The criticism is intense, characterizing the government's activities as "catastrophic" and destructive to public trust. There is also criticism that taxes are being raised under the pretext of "national defense," even though the money is not actually reaching that sector.
