Background

After the previous parliamentary election in 2019, the Centre Party, led by Jüri Ratas, formed a government with Ratas serving as prime minister. His government ended in January 2021 after a corruption investigation, and Kaja Kallas of the Reform Party formed a coalition government with the Centre Party, which ended in June 2022. Kallas then formed a government with Isamaa and the Social Democratic Party and stayed as prime minister.
