Üldinfo

As a native of Saaremaa, I have long promoted regional policy in Western Estonia. I will continue to contribute to the legislative work in the field of security to ensure a safe future for Estonia. Twenty years of political experience and 20 years of work in law enforcement bodies have given me the necessary background for this. I think it is important to stand for the stability of both national and international security, as well as to create a supportive business environment in rural areas to stop depopulation. I work honestly and with all my heart.
