15th Riigikogu, 6th sitting, plenary sitting.
Strong opposition faces the Reform Party and Social Minister Karmen Joller, who stands accused of creating instability in family policy, engaging in perfidious conduct (breaking promises), and failing to act (inaction). The criticism targets the government's decision to postpone implementing these measures until the spring of 2026, even though there is already a budget surplus. It views the Reform Party as the main impediment to shaping a consensus-based population policy.

Fifteenth Riigikogu, sixth sitting, plenary sitting.
The criticism is directed at the actions of the Minister of the Interior and the security ministries, accusing them of rushing and putting forward a "raw" draft bill. The opposition is intense because, in the speaker's estimation, the bill threatens the emergence of ideological control.

15th Riigikogu, 6th sitting, plenary session
The main opponent is Minister Karmen Joller, and indirectly, the Reform Party. The criticism is intense and twofold: it concerns both personal conduct on social media (inciting and insulting people) and political inconsistency regarding the recognition of science-based methods. Opponents are accused of political hypocrisy and disregarding support for families in the 2026 budget.

15th Riigikogu, 6th sitting, press briefing
The main criticism is aimed at the governing coalition, particularly the Minister of Finance, Kristen Michal, and Kristina Kallas. The criticism targets both policy issues (tax unfairness, lack of exemptions for the car tax) and personal conduct, specifically accusing Kallas of using profanity when describing the nation's financial state. The opposition is intense and uncompromising, demanding that the ministers be called to order.

15th Riigikogu, 6th sitting, plenary session.
The primary criticism is directed towards the Minister and the leadership of the Ministry of Defense concerning an unfair salary system that fails to motivate young soldiers. A strong oppositional stance is also evident in the procedural criticism, as the Minister did not answer the question posed, but instead stated what they wished, which points to a demand for accountability.
2025-09-04
15th Riigikogu, extraordinary session of the Riigikogu
The main opponents are the government led by the Reform Party and specific ministers, especially the Minister of Social Protection, Signe Riisalo, who is being called "the most child-hostile minister in Estonian history." The criticism is both political (tax hikes, cuts) and personal, accusing the opponents of unethical behavior (business interests related to nursing homes, violation of political culture) and lying. No willingness to compromise has been expressed.
