The differences between the ruling parties were reflected clearly in their choice of ministers. The Reform Party chose to stick with tried and tested people, while both Isamaa and the Social Democrats (SDE) made much more strategic use of the government change, Martin Mölder finds in Vikerraadio's daily comment.
Prime Minister Kaja Kallas (Reform) said in an interview on "Aktuaalne kaamera" evening news, that she believes incoming ministers with little prior experience have the ability to succeed in their new roles. Kallas stressed that everything has been set out in the coalition agreement, and that there should be no surprises from the new government.
President Alar Karis met with ministerial candidates of Kaja Kallas' (Reform) second government in Kadriorg on Sunday to hear about plans for the next eight months.
Chairman of the coalition Isamaa party Helir-Valdor Seeder told "Aktuaalne kaamera" evening news that the party's goal was to introduce political newcomers as ministers.
