15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary session
The rhetorical style is analytical and incisive, posing direct and challenging questions to the minister and the rapporteur. Logical argumentation is employed to expose contradictions within government policy, specifically concerning the method of making compromises, which is described as being "far removed from the Estonian people." The tone is formal, yet it incorporates critical rhetoric ("to squander millions at the government level").
