15th Estonian Parliament, 4th sitting, information briefing
Political Position
The political position focuses intensely on the internal procedural fairness and equal treatment within the Riigikogu. The speaker sharply contests the perceived marginalization that occurs when compiling the queues for the information hour. This stance is motivated by personal injustice and limited opportunities to speak, which calls into question the impartiality of parliamentary standards.
