15th Riigikogu, 5th session, plenary session
The rhetorical style is highly combative and accusatory, employing strong terms such as "fraud," "fraudsters," and "allowed access to the feeding trough." The appeal targets both economic logic (competitiveness) and emotions (impoverishment, injustice), while simultaneously maintaining the formal structure of a Riigikogu speech.
