The conservative alliance members outgoing government won a narrow victory in the elections of Sunday, April 17 in Finland. The Nationalists have them made a historic breakthrough by becoming the third political force. Of the 200 parliamentary seats, the Election Commission has granted 44 to the National Coalition (Conservative), 42 Social Democratic Party (SDP), which was in opposition and 39 to right-wing nationalist True Finns who are clearly even better than what they had been led to expect the polls.
Number of votes, the National Coalition won 20.4%, before the SDP, with 19.1%, and the True Finns, 19%, according to the electoral commission has registered a high turnout of 70.4% cons 67.9% during the 2007 legislative elections. The fourth largest party, the Centre, led by outgoing Prime Minister Mari Kiviniemi, won 35 seats with 15.8% of votes.
"My dear friends, we wrote the story!" Ignited the head of the National Coalition Jyrki Katainen, which should become the next prime minister. The decline is the most bitter of the Centre, losing sixteen deputies, became the fourth political force in the new Parliament. The True Finns earn them 34 seats compared to the outgoing assembly.
Former smallest parliamentary party, he became the third largest. This represents a personal victory for their charismatic leader Timo Soini, who issued a populist, eurosceptic who has managed the controversial debate on immigration. "Sometimes it pays to stick to his convictions even if it encounters obstacles and even if it is mocked," shouted Mr.
Soini his supporters. "The True Finns have now a deputy in every riding!", He was welcomed. Soini's party is the only one to have increased compared to recent legislation. Its leader has already said he wanted to change the terms of the bailout of Portugal. Unlike other countries in the euro area, the Finnish Parliament has the right to decide on applications for funding bailouts of the European Union.
The good results of True Finns mean they probably participate in discussions on forming a government and Timo Soini was quick to reaffirm his opposition to the bailout of Portugal. "These measures, I do not think they will be maintained," he told the YLE speaking media plan prepared for Portugal, third countries in the euro area, after Greece and Ireland, to need rescue measures.
"It's a bad deal," he added. A little later he also told the agency that his goal was that Finland will pay less money to Brussels. "Sure, it's a disappointment, but people have told us what they wanted and we must listen," said Ms Kiviniemi. "The conclusion is obvious. With these results, we find ourselves in the opposition," she lamented on air on national television YLE.
She will probably leave the head of the government's Finance Minister Jyrki Katainen, because "traditionally, training agree that the leader of the party best represented in terms of seats forms the government," said political analyst Ilkka Ruostetsaari of University of Tampere.
