TL;DR Summary

Alexander Stubb of the National Coalition Party is the frontrunner in Finland's presidential run-off, with nearly 46% of voters casting their ballots in advance. The new president will play a key role in defining Finland's NATO policies and leading foreign and security policy, following the country's recent decision to join NATO. Stubb, a former prime minister, is in favor of deep NATO cooperation, while his opponent, Pekka Haavisto, advocates for a more cautious approach. The winner is expected to be known by around 2100 GMT.
