XV Riigikogu

General information

I am very passionate about each individual and the state alike having their finances in order. The financial security of our families helps to ensure the preservation of our nation and thus our independence; a solid financial standing is the corner stone of our security. We need to be smart, bold, and patient enough to make considered decisions where money is concerned; this is the only way to be in a position to defend, maintain, or develop the country we all love. My goal in the Riigikogu is to make sure that the public purse is in good hands.
