Finnish PM: Deputy’s apology for racist slurs is enough

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 20:01:41 GMT

Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo said the racist remarks made by Deputy Prime Minister Riikka Purra were unacceptable but insisted her apology has closed the matter. Finland’s opposition doesn’t buy that, however, and is calling for a confidence vote.“Every MP should have their say on this, and that is best done in a vote of confidence,” said Harry Harkimo, chaiman of the liberal Movement Now party. Similar demands were made by Krista Kiuru, a former minister from the Social Democratic party.Purra — who is also finance minister — from the far-right Finns Party, came under fire earlier this week for making racist and violent remarks about Black people and demeaning comments about poor people in writings that appeared under a pseudonym on the internet 15 years ago. The scandal — the third to hit the Finnish government in a matter of weeks, all involving the Finns Party — rocked Helsinki’s new right-wing coalition.In a joint press conference held with P...

Should the EU run migrant rescues? The EU’s executive says no, Parliament says yes

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 20:01:41 GMT

The EU is sparring over whether Brussels should erect a Europe-wide search-and-rescue operation for migrants following the shipwreck that claimed hundreds of lives near Greece in June. In a tense European Parliament hearing on Wednesday in Strasbourg, EU Home Affairs Commissioner Ylva Johansson declined to endorse the idea, putting her at odds with a majority of Parliament. She indicated that migrant search-and-rescue operations fell within the remit of national governments and the EU border agency Frontex played a coordinating role.“We will continue this work, step it up and engage actively with member states for them to take necessary actions,” she told EU lawmakers on Wednesday, before pointedly adding: “Member states should step up on search and rescue.”Parliament wants the European Commission, the EU’s executive, to do more. On Thursday, MEPs are poised to vote on a resolution urging the EU to set up its own migrant rescue mission aimed at saving more li...
