National Coalition Party candidate Alexander Stubb is set to become Finland’s next president on 1 March, beating independent (but supported by the Greens) candidate Pekka Haavisto.
I voted for Haavisto but think that Stubb will be a excellent president too. They both are very experienced in foreign policy, pro-EU and very strong supporters of Ukraine. In fact, the press had to dig real hard to find any differences between them, the most major one being their stance on how Finland should respond (to very theoretical situation) if NATO wanted to store nuclear weapons in Finland or transport them via our territory.

I’d be abjectly shocked if NATO ever decided to host or transport Nukes via Finland, it’d be a blindingly stupid escelation for seemingly no good reason.
Yes, very much this. I find it kinda funny that once the press discovered this huge disagreement (not really) between them it was talked about in every singe debate even though absolutely nobody is wanting to give us nukes
Grattis mina syskon i öst!
I’ll take it.
I miss having good politicians. All we got in Germany are neo-liberal corrupt demagoges that ruin the social cohesion in favour of their industry masters.
Habeck is quite good but sadly under constant attack by all of Springer-Media and Focus so the public opinion is sadly skewed just because of that…
Trade you for an 80 years gaff machine or an almost 80 year old criminal game show host wannabe Hitler? Two for any one of your neo-liberals, but you have to take both…
