By Plenary Sessions: Kalev Stoicescu

The political position focuses heavily on condemning Russia’s aggression and war crimes in Ukraine, especially the deportation of Ukrainian children, which is treated as a crime of genocidal proportions. This stance is value-driven and resolute, demanding justice, accountability for the perpetrators (referencing ICC warrants), and the restoration of the inalienable right of Ukrainian children to return to their homeland. The speaker emphasizes the necessity of supporting a free, democratic, and independent Ukraine.

The political stance is strongly value-based, emphasizing the defense of the democratic world in the context of a new Cold War. The most crucial issues are anchoring Estonia firmly within a strong NATO and the EU, supporting Ukraine, and holding Russia accountable for war crimes and economic damage. It is stressed that foreign policy serves as Estonia's first line of defense, and diplomacy and national defense must develop in tandem. Support is given to the ambitious aspiration to join the Nordic Council, aiming to strengthen Estonia's Nordic-Baltic identity.
