The author considered the proposal a good start and suggested next sending a battle group composed of NATO countries' naval forces to Romania and Bulgaria's economic waters to protect the area's maritime traffic, including Ukraine's maritime traffic. According to him, this way Russia would understand that provocation is not always worthwhile. #Nato #Meriliikenne #Ukraina #RO #BG #UA #RU (translated)

Mikko Välimaa described France as being on fire and denied that the reason for the situation was austerity policy. According to him, the country's public finances had been managed loosely for half a century, and now the money had run out.

Kamal Jafi wrote that according to him, there was a willingness to use one billion euros for development aid, but when it came to the essential needs of one's own people, reference was made to the difficult economic situation and lack of money.

Fibonazzo wrote that his early investment decision made with a large amount was a mistake. According to him, Friday's trading and the closing price indicated that no buyers had still been found and the decline could continue. He estimated that the next week would show the direction. Fibonazzo stated that the return accumulated since the beginning of the year was still 362 percent and had occurred in the same way as recent returns. He said he was contemplating how to proceed and mentioned considering a more defensive strategy after giving up EQR, but had abandoned that idea at the time. He stressed that his writings were not intended as investment recommendations. If the market were moving into a broader bear market, Fibonazzo said he would likely sell everything and take a break from investing. He described the past year as intense overall. #Fibonazzo #sijoittaminen #markkinat #talous (translated)

Nowadays, at the beginning of the electoral term, a specific spending line is set for four years, and deviating from it within the framework system is not possible. Koskela says in an interview with STT that the framework of economic policy should also be considered more broadly in terms of the debt brake. #valtiontalous #Vasemmistoliitto #talouspolitiikka (translated)

Minja Koskela presents a major reform to the state economy to the Left Alliance party council, according to which the framework procedure for the state budget should be changed to also consider the revenue side and to moderate the adjustment amounts. #valtiontalous #Vasemmistoliitto #talouspolitiikka (translated)

Jocka Träskbäck praised Suvi-Anne Siimes's economic views and straightforwardness. He wrote that it would have been difficult to imagine 20 years earlier that the then-Member of Parliament and chair of the Left Alliance would present such views. Träskbäck described Siimes, for example, regarding how understanding of the national economy can deepen, in his opinion, when one engages with it in ways other than through the employment office and Kela. He noted that the article had already been published on March 10, 2026, but the topic was still relevant. https://t.co/poiWbvZ4lq #Suomi #politikka #talous (translated)

Jari Sarasvuo wrote that in socialism, people's bills were paid with others' money, even though the benefits decreased and costs increased. According to him, the broad consequences of politics could be understood by observing cause-and-effect relationships without unreasonable reading or seeing the world. Sarasvuo mentioned that Marin's government paid large amounts of his family's electricity bills and said that it was not right. #sosialismi #politiikka #talous (translated)

Jesse Rauhamo wrote that Finland would use 1,034,000,000 euros for development aid in 2026, which he claimed would amount to 2.83 million euros per day and 118,000 euros per hour. He compared the sum to Finnish families with children, who he said were counting their euros in stores, to elderly people waiting for care, and to the state's increasing borrowing. Rauhamo asked when Finland had become the social office of the whole world. #suomi #kehitysapuu #talous (translated)

Juho Hirvelä wrote that entrepreneurship could become attractive again if the old YEL system were restored. According to him, the current situation did not entice people to try, and the state could be losing money annually as businesses closed and new ones remained unestablished. #yrittäjyys #Suomi #talous (translated)

Petteri Tarkkonen wrote that the National Coalition Party had practically functioned as a right-wing party for decades while the Finns Party focused on immigration. According to him, under Riikka Purra's leadership, the Finns Party had become the leading economic party, making it a more acceptable alternative for traditional National Coalition voters. Tarkkonen assessed that the Finns Party also did not have the traditional burdens like political appointments or Yle that the National Coalition Party faced. Tarkkonen claimed that the media had sought to present the Finns Party as merely a racist party and create the impression that voting for the party would make the voter a racist. He believed that the media also aimed to wedge between the National Coalition Party and the Finns Party but assessed that social media, especially X, was rejecting this narrative. He predicted that the 2027 elections would be a turning point in Finnish history. According to Tarkkonen, the National Coalition Party ending up in a left-wing government would lead to a development similar to that of the Centre Party, and cooperation between the National Coalition Party and the left would remain a matter of distributive politics. He also estimated that the legacy of a red-green government would be similar to that of Sanna Marin's government. Tarkkonen appealed to the National Coalition Party and Petteri Orpo to abandon the best-hope politics he described and not to turn the party into an economic-democratic entity. According to him, the traditional National Coalition voter would not vote for the Social Democrats. #Politiikka #Kokoomus #Persut (translated)

Sture Fjäder questioned how the chairman of the city council, Ulla Kaukola, had ended up in a situation she considered unclear. He also criticized the construction and repair of ice halls in Vantaa and wrote that the city's finances were weak and staff were being laid off, even though there was money for the ice halls. #vantaa https://t.co/HDFcJNfCH9 #Vantaa #kaupunkipolitiikka #talous (translated)

Roni Arvonen wrote that, according to his estimate, Finland's state debt is growing by about 13.5 billion euros per year at the current rate. He estimated that if five consecutive right-wing governments balanced the economy as well as the current government, the state would accumulate about 270 billion euros more in net debt over 20 years. Arvonen compared this amount to Finland's approximately 234 billion euro annual GDP and estimated that the new debt would correspond to about 115 percent of GDP. He criticized the current government's representatives from the right, particularly the National Coalition Party, for talking about historical cuts and economic measures. According to him, while expenses had been cut, it was not enough to make a significant impact. Arvonen added that interest and the burdens of old debts were not taken into account in the calculations. #velka #talous #BKT (translated)

Elina Hiltunen wrote that defending her values had become costly for her: she had lost her well-paying job and all her positions of trust in the National Coalition Party, resulting in a collapse of her income. She stated that content production and the paid subscriber community did not even cover the basic costs of the operation, and therefore considered the claim that money was the motive for her activities to be unsustainable. Hiltunen said she was acting because she cared about the future of Finland, and mentioned that her motives and goals were the same as those she had openly discussed in her videos on Instagram and TikTok since the spring. #raha #talous #suomentulevaisuus (translated)

Jukka Lepikkö wrote that according to Bloomberg, Anthropic's annualized revenue for Q3 was $67 billion and free cash flow was positive.

The author mentioned that Marko-Oskari Lehtonen's new book addresses the pursuit of one's own financial interest and questionable connections.

Joakim Vigelius wrote to Pia Kauma that, in his opinion, lowering the distribution obligation could reduce prices by about 15–20 cents without decreasing state tax revenues. He estimated that a similar effect from a tax cut would cost the state one billion euros and considered a package of 60 million euros to be minor in comparison. #verotus #talous #alennus (translated)
