In Finland, conservative candidate Alexander Stubb wins the presidential election. 70.7% of some 4.3 million voters came to vote in this second round.
The difference between the candidates, both liberals, comes down in particular to the question of the storage and transport of nuclear weapons in Finland. Pekka Haavisto does not want to authorize them, although as a member of NATO, the Nordic country must participate in exercises relating to the Alliance's nuclear policy. “I want (the next president) to be as good as his predecessor,” said a resident of the capital.
