The National Coalition Party, led by Prime Minister Petteri Orpo, is set to announce a contentious new immigration program today, advocating for a significant tightening of Finland's immigration policies. This move comes as the party's parliamentary group has prepared a detailed stance on the issue, signaling a formalization of their approach to national identity and border control. Economically, a professor on Yle warned that rising electricity prices could lead to Finland becoming a 'banana state,' with data center profits potentially not benefiting the country. Meanwhile, the Finnish Defence Forces have lifted movement restrictions in the Eastern Gulf of Finland. Other domestic news includes a major scandal in harness racing, where a Finnish trainer was revealed to be a leader of a criminal organization. Additionally, a regional health authority, Pirha, has failed to bill 8 million euros, which will result in substantial back-invoices for customers.
