15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, press briefing
Political Position
The most important topic is the critical teacher shortage, which is estimated by 700 vacant positions. The political stance is strongly critical of the government's inaction and preparation regarding the implementation of new language requirements, which will deepen the crisis by several hundred more positions. This is primarily a performance-driven framework that assesses the government's activity and effectiveness.
