Finland intends to declare state of emergency due to coronavirus

Helsingin Sanomat reports.

It is noted that the main reason for the introduction of the state of emergency is the need to restrict the work of restaurants.

Within the framework of the legislation, this can be done only by resorting to Art.

23 of the Constitution of the country.

The Finnish Cabinet hopes to use this measure to reduce the growth in the number of COVID-19 patients in the country.

Earlier it was reported that the Czech Cabinet of Ministers will ask the parliament to extend the emergency regime in the country due to COVID-19.
