By Plenary Sessions: Aleksandr Tšaplõgin

No direct political confrontation is being expressed; the criticism is aimed instead at the state's inaction regarding the compensation and regulation of high prices. The criticism is policy- and results-based, not personal.

The confrontation is aimed at both the government minister (on the issue of healthcare funding) and the rapporteur/government coalition. The criticism is intense, encompassing political discord and culminating in a direct personal accusation of lying for distorting legislative facts. No willingness to compromise is evident; instead, the dishonesty of the opposing side is emphasized.

The speaker is in an opposition position, criticizing the government's actions in the context of the budget. The criticism is policy- and results-based, focusing on whether the budget offers solutions for alleviating poverty.
