Prime Minister Kristen Michal emphasizes that the state budget should focus on wage increases in education, culture, and internal security.

Prime Minister Kristen Michal says that a wage increase is necessary, especially in education, culture, and internal security. He notes that this has been discussed for a long time. Everything depends on the country's financial capabilities.
Finance Minister Jürgen Ligi wants to increase the salaries of public servants. Michal says that now we need to wait for the financial forecast made in summer or autumn. Then we can decide whether the financial situation allows for a wage increase.
Michal praises Ligi as Finance Minister. He notes that Ligi keeps financial matters in order. If Ligi says he is looking for opportunities for a wage increase, then he is doing so seriously.
Ligi said on ETV that the salaries of public servants have been at the same level for four years. This is not sustainable. He cites teachers, doctors, and police officers as examples. Michal replied that these areas are indeed priorities.
Michal emphasized that the country's largest expenditures in the coming years will be in the defense sector. The budget is in deficit and borrowing is necessary. This also affects the possibilities of wage increases. However, if the Finance Minister says he is looking for solutions, there is hope that something can be done.
