By Plenary Sessions: Margit Sutrop

The politician supports the draft Research and Development Organisation Act, stressing the necessity of ensuring compliance with research ethics and protecting the autonomy of research institutions (especially the Estonian Research Council) from political interference. He is concerned about the stability of funding and financial sustainability, particularly regarding the coverage of infrastructure costs and the lack of clarity in measuring research expenditures. His political framework is strongly policy- and system-based, focusing on reducing regulations and increasing trust in the system.

The political focus is directed towards the intersection of sports policy and education, emphasizing the role of universities in sports science and the preparation of coaches. The speaker generally agrees with the concerns raised but is seeking clarification regarding the implementation of specific programs and collaboration efforts. The approach is strongly policy- and solutions-based, focusing on the effectiveness of the actions taken.

The political focus is on foreign policy and restoring relations with Israel, which, according to the speaker, have deteriorated. The speaker is demanding a firm pro-Israel stance from the government regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, while criticizing the "mixed signals" sent previously.
