Kalev Stoicescu is a member of the Riigikogu. He says he will join the Parempoolsed party. On August 9, he announced that he had left the Eesti 200 party.
Stoicescu says that Estonian politics needs Parempoolsed. He believes that future generations should not have to pay for all the costs.
Stoicescu plans to continue working on Estonia's foreign and defense policy. He says Estonia must remain strong and stay a Western country. Estonia must be able to be a good neighbor.
Stoicescu wants to participate in the 2027 Riigikogu elections. He will run on the Parempoolsed list.
The leader of Parempoolsed, Lavly Perling, is happy with Stoicescu's decision. Perling says that Parempoolsed welcomes everyone who wants to help Estonia. Stoicescu's knowledge will benefit the party.
Before entering politics, Stoicescu worked at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He was also Estonia's ambassador to the United States. Later, he worked at the International Centre for Defence Studies. For the last 3.5 years, he was the chairman of the Riigikogu's National Defence Committee.
