Yes well closing the trade and border with Russia kind of fucked Finland. I was under the impression that EU would help out with maybe money or better trade agreements… Well here we are.

What a coincidence, with the “fiscally responsive” parties in charge!
I guess corruption didn’t fix our fiscal problems after all. Oh well, try again?

It’s kind of absurd to penalize Finland for fiscal deficits when we’ve been forced to pivot our economy and hike defense spending due to Russian aggression. The EU needs to recognize that protecting democracy is a collective investment, not a budgetary failure that needs disciplinary action.

That’s non sense considering that recent deficit is also coming from joining NATO and from loss of deals with Russia (very important especially for eastern boarder cities)

They should exclude defence spending from the rules or the portion above the EU average. Otherwise it looks like Finland’s in a tough spot, aging population, low growth and high unemployment… Would be great if Putin moved on from this world and Russia became a normal non hostile nation. Russia invading Ukraine has meant higher defence spending and lower growth cos of the tariffs with Russia. That clown in the White House isn’t helping things either.
