By Plenary Sessions: Margit Sutrop

The style of cooperation is formal and institutional, with questions being presented to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee for political guidance. There are no references to cross-party cooperation or a willingness to compromise.

The committee is professional and neutral in its work, impartially presenting the viewpoints of various parties (the ministry, factions, and committee members). It is open to cooperation on specific goals (e.g., supporting national sciences, addressing the student loan issue), but requires solutions that are legally sound and well-justified. It supports collaboration among researchers in groups and international projects.
