XV Riigikogu

General information

Having grown up at a time when Estonia regained its independence and rebuilt itself, I have always been keen to do my part for the development of my country. My priorities are constitutional rights and families with children. After all, these are the families that raise the future of Estonia. As a nation, we must stick together because everyone matters in a small country. We all need each other.
