Martin Helme, Urmas, and Raimond are mentioned by name as the critics.

The main opponent is Mr. Reinsalu, who is criticized for both political incompetence and procedural ineptitude. His stance that a loan should be taken out to finance national defense is particularly opposed—a loan he referred to as a "one-off expense." Furthermore, his draft bill is deemed unnecessary because the issue has already been resolved.

They are directly opposing "political opponents" who are spreading misinformation about the purpose of the security tax. The criticism is fact-based and intense, with the goal of refuting claims that the money is not being used to ensure security, and advising them "not to see a ghost where there is none."

Domestic opposition is not criticized in the speeches.

He explains why late proposals from interest groups (e.g., the Family Doctors' Association) could not be included in the current draft bill, defending the committee's procedural decisions. He directs the more complex questions (e.g., the basis for background checks) to be discussed within the framework of the future Readiness Act.

Direct personal criticism was not offered, but mention was made of the obstructionist mass amendments proposed by the EKRE faction, which hindered the processing of the bills.
