National Coalition Party candidate Alexander Stubb is set to become Finland’s next president on 1 March, beating independent (but supported by the Greens) candidate Pekka Haavisto.

I voted for Haavisto but think that Stubb will be a excellent president too. They both are very experienced in foreign policy, pro-EU and very strong supporters of Ukraine. In fact, the press had to dig real hard to find any differences between them, the most major one being their stance on how Finland should respond (to very theoretical situation) if NATO wanted to store nuclear weapons in Finland or transport them via our territory.

    That’s not fair, that’s like exchanging actual AIDS for cholera. How am I supposed to decide if I want to shit myself to death or die slowly to a corrupted immune system. Eh, now that I read it out aloud in my head, I think I’ll stick with actual AIDS, probably.
