Sanna Marin, Europe's Youngest Ex-PM, Bids Farewell to Politics

Former Finnish prime minister Sanna Marin, one of Europe's youngest leaders, has announced her departure from Finnish politics and her intention to join a London-based non-profit organization. Marin, who led a center-left coalition government and gained international visibility for her handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and support for Ukraine, cited a desire for a new role and the potential benefit to Finland as reasons for her decision. Finland's recent entry into NATO and her defeat in the parliamentary elections earlier this year also played a role. Marin will join the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change as a strategic counselor, advising on issues such as good governance, technology, climate, and gender equality.

The investigation found that receipts were altered and unhoused men were recruited to pose as displaced veterans. Fox News issued a rare on-air correction, and the state attorney general's office is looking into the situation.
