"In democracy the right of the majority to pursue its political agenda and the right of the opposition to have a say and be heard are equally important. Democracy means, first and foremost, the responsibility of the majority towards the minority. But the developments in the recent days in the Riigikogu show that, above all, political parties need to look for the ability and will to cooperate and to move forward on a common ground. The Estonian people expect their representatives to cooperate and to follow the laws they have established. The Estonian people would like to be proud of the Riigikogu, "said President Kersti Kaljulaid.
On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, the President of the Republic will meet with the chairman of the Estonian Reform Party Kaja Kallas, chairman of the Estonian Center Party, Prime Minister Jüri Ratas, chairman of the Estonian Conservative People's Party (EKRE) Martin Helme and chairman of the Isamaa Party Helir-Valdor Seeder. In addition, the Head of State will also meet with the leader of the Center Party faction in the Riigikogu Kersti Sarapuu, the leader of the EKRE faction Siim Pohlak, and the leader of the Isamaa faction Priit Sibul.
