Henn Põlluaas (born 16 February 1960) is an Estonian politician and the President of the Riigikogu since April 2019 to March 2021.[1][2] He was also the mayor of Saue from 2012 until 2015 when he was elected to the parliament.[3] He has been the vice-chairman of the Conservative People's Party since 2017. In June 2021, Põlluaas was announced as the Conservative People's Party candidate in the 2021 Estonian presidential election.[4]
When he was elected the President of the Riigikogu, he immediately ordered two European Union flags in the main reception hall of the parliament to be removed.[5] After he lost the position in March 2021, the EU flags were restored.[6]
