Republished the episode originally from my The Stormy Petrel Times podcast. Want to learn from an international politician how different countries govern and how other countries go about their political parties? Listen to one of the Estonian politicians who visited Oglethorpe University’s meet-and-greet politics class, Kristo Enn Vaga. At only 27 years old, Kristo Enn Vaga went from being a pro-cyclist in France to an elected politician representing the Estonian Reform Party. Join us as he shares how he became involved in politics and why. Aside from providing advice on how young people can get involved in politics, Kristo also discusses how international parties work and that politics is not a destination but a journey.
