TL;DR Summary

Finland's new right-wing government, led by the National Coalition Party, the far-right Finns Party, the Christian Democrats, and the Swedish People's Party, plans to cut €4 billion in spending, including cuts to social security and education, and increasing VAT. The government is also expected to take a tougher stance on immigration and climate change, with the Finns Party opposing radical steps to fight climate change and wanting to lower the price of petrol. The Swedish People's Party risks its reputation by joining a far-right party in government, and Finland's international reputation may suffer due to cuts in international aid and a less welcoming stance towards asylum seekers.
