TL;DR Summary

Finland, NATO's newest member, has sworn in a new coalition government led by Prime Minister Petteri Orpo, the leader of the conservative National Coalition Party, and including the far-right, euroskeptic Finns Party. The new Cabinet is considered the most right-wing government in Finland's modern history and is expected to carry out major social policy and labor reforms, as well as budget cuts, over the next four years. While Finland's strategy on Ukraine may stay the same, the government is taking a hard stance on immigration and seeks to decrease the country's government debt.
