Mika Merano wrote that mere selection of immigrants was not enough in immigration policy. He described the immigration that has arrived over the decades as low quality and said that removing it from the country was extremely difficult within the framework of current laws. According to Merano, in addition to ensuring the quality of immigration, care should be taken to ensure, for example, that all immigrants who have committed crimes and have net negative lifetime impacts should be returned. #maahanmuutto #maahanmuuttopolitiikka #rikollisuus (translated)

Lucia-pulla wrote that one of the most absurd cases in the discussion related to immigration and multiculturalism was that prisoners were served mousse for dessert, the gelatin of which, according to her, they were unaware of. She mentioned that gelatin was a problem because it is made from pig parts and eating pork is haram. She described an example of a foreign prisoner convicted of serious crimes who would be offered dessert and then apologized to for its contradiction with his religious beliefs. Lucia-pulla asked how self-destructive the country could become. #suicidalempathy #maahanmuutto #monikulttuurisuus #uskonto (translated)

Miko Bergbom wrote that the Green youth hoped for "free money" for immigrants and reminded that, according to him, this was taxpayer money. He stated that Finland could not afford the current situation and demanded a swift transition to a citizenship-based social security system. According to Bergbom, the welfare state was at risk if this was not done, as the money, in his view, was running out. Bergbom claimed that the share of immigrants in certain social benefits clearly exceeded their share of the population. He said that in the capital region, their share of the total amount of social assistance was already about 50 percent. He stated that this situation should raise concerns, but he opposed new unconditional benefits for immigrants proposed by the left. #maahanmuutto #sosiaaliturva #verotus (translated)

As a former member of the National Coalition Party, Elina Ketonen wrote that she had been following the party's change in immigration policy with interest. She noted that in a recent poll by Yle, the National Coalition Party had fallen behind the Finns Party, and the party's parliamentary group had presented a strict immigration line. According to Ketonen, this was about the parliamentary group's program, not a directive approved by the party congress. She wrote that the program would not bind the next government nor guarantee concrete decisions during the next term. Ketonen interpreted the shift in line primarily as a bid for votes and assessed that the rhetoric would harden as support weakened. In her view, credibility stemmed from consistent actions, and voters had the right to ask whether the National Coalition Party's line had truly changed or if only the campaign speeches had changed. #maahanmuutto #politiikka #keskustelu (translated)

Hannu Järvinen wrote that the National Coalition Party had a good opportunity in Espoo to demonstrate how the party's new immigration-critical line was reflected in decision-making.

According to Järvinen, the party also led the Espoo City Council and the city government, and it would soon be seen whether actions matched the rhetoric. #Espoo #maahanmuutto #kokoomus (translated)

The author estimates that if Finland continues to overlook the issues of immigration and does not attempt to solve or address them publicly, the country could end up in a situation similar to that of Germany and France, where far-right forces gain more power.

Petra Nyqvist wondered whether the previously expressed division by the Finns Party that led to the party's split into the "nasty" and "blue" factions had also spread to the National Coalition Party. According to her, there seemed to be an attempt to oust cultured bourgeois values from the party. Nyqvist questioned what the point would be in having two right-wing parties that are both "nasty," which would share core ideas of opposing immigration and attitudes towards racism. She doubted whether there would be enough anti-foreigner voters for two large parties, which she described as being empty in content. #politiikka #maahanmuutto #rasismi (translated)

Henri Vanhanen wrote that it was difficult to say whether Germany's Alice Weidel and France's Marine Le Pen were imitators of Donald Trump or sympathizers of Vladimir Putin, and according to him, the difference may not necessarily have mattered for the outcome. He mentioned that Weidel had declared the war in Ukraine a defeat and demanded an end to Germany's support, while Le Pen wanted to limit France's financial support to Ukraine. According to Vanhanen, politicians aiming for power in Europe's large countries had a short-sighted attitude towards Russia, European history, and security. He warned Finland not to assume that the rest of Europe would inevitably follow the same path as Finland. He did not consider the AfD's entry into the German federal government in the coming years to be likely but assessed that the strengthening of political forces like the party would pose serious security policy problems. Vanhanen also wrote that the Kremlin was monitoring Europe's electoral calendars. According to him, Putin would have no reason to rush negotiations if he believed that Ukraine's supporters would be replaced by leaders who were less sympathetic to Ukraine. Vanhanen noted that Europe's center-right parties had not responded in a timely manner to citizens' immigration concerns, which had allowed room for radical alternatives. He viewed the problem not as a demand for stricter immigration policies, but in that these movements were also bringing to power forces that represented admiration for authoritarianism, opposition to Ukraine, and sympathy for Russia. He assessed that decisions about Europe's security would be made both on the battlefields of Ukraine and in European elections, emphasizing that this should also be understood in Finland. https://t.co/3s94O0WUiT #Eurooppa #Politiikka #Turvallisuus (translated)

Sture Fjäder wrote that he was pleased that his party, the National Coalition Party, had noticed the issue six months before the elections.
