TL;DR Summary

Finland's left-wing Prime Minister Sanna Marin conceded defeat in the parliamentary election as the pro-business National Coalition Party (NCP) claimed victory. The NCP is expected to win 48 of the 200 seats in parliament, narrowly ahead of the nationalist Finns Party with 46 seats and Marin's Social Democrats on 43 seats. NCP leader Petteri Orpo vowed to "fix Finland" and its economy, and will get the first chance at forming a coalition to obtain a majority in parliament. Marin, the world's youngest prime minister when she took office in 2019, faced criticism for her partying and government's public spending.
