President Niinistö’s comments a factor in Junnila’s resignation, researchers tell HS
THE RESIGNATION of Minister of Economic Affairs Vilhelm Junnila (PS) is at least partly attributable to remarks by President Sauli Niinistö, gauge researchers interviewed by Helsingin Sanomat.
“Regarding this particular situation: I’ve previously got quite a bit of criticism for intervening too much, but what I’d now say is that it’s at least very embarrassing for the government – at least,” Niinistö stated to MTV at Suomi-Areena in Pori on Friday.
