Finland’s PM Sanna Marin LOSES Election

Finland’s Prime Minister Sanna Marin conceded defeat last night in the Nordic country’s general election as the opposition centre-Right National Coalition Party claimed victory in a tightly fought contest.

Marin, 37, the world’s youngest prime minister when she took office in 2019, faced criticism in Finland for her partying and her government’s spending on pensions and education.

And last night, just days before Finland’s historic accession to Nato, Marin’s hopes of a second term in office were dashed after her Left-wing Social Democrats party came third in the general election with 19.19 per cent of the vote.

With the top three parties each getting around 20 per cent of the vote, no party is in position to form a government alone. More than 2,400 candidates from 22 parties were vying for the 200 seats in the country’s parliament, the Eduskunta.
