Social Democrats in Finland
The Social Democrats in Finland on Sunday elected Deputy leader Sanna Marin as their candidate for the post of prime minister...
At the age of 34, Marin will be the youngest leader of the Nordic nation in history if she is confirmed by parliament in a vote likely to take place next week...
"Now we have to look forward," Marin said, defeating rival Antti Lindtman in the party vote. "We have a lot of work to do to restore trust, but we have a joint government program."...
Having emerged as the largest party after the Finnish elections earlier this year, the Social Democrats may choose one of their own for the post of prime minister after the resignation of the previous incumbent president Antti Rinne on Tuesday...
Rinne resigned after a key coalition partner, the Finnish Center Party, lost confidence in him and withdrew its support, hinting at a lack of trust...
The Center Party also criticized the 57-year-old politician's treatment...
Political breakthrough, 27 years old
Marin previously served as her party's deputy chairman and most recently served as Minister of Transport and Communications, in addition to her role as deputy leader...
Marin quickly rose through the ranks of Finnish politics, becoming the head of the city council in the industrial city of Tampere in 2012, at the age of 27. She has been a legislator since 2015...
Like New Zealand's Jacinda Arden, Marin is also a mother, having given birth to a daughter last year. She was raised by a single mother herself and talked about how she felt discriminated against when her mother was in a same-sex relationship...
Five parties, five women
In addition to nominating Marine as the youngest prime minister in the world, the Social Democrats also announced that Katri Kulmani, 32, the head of the Centrist Party, will become finance minister when the final cabinet is announced this week... Previously, Kulmani held the position of Minister of Economy, a more junior position...
Five parties currently share power in the center-left coalition, and all of them are led by women, most of whom are over 30, which means that Marine's new coalition cabinet will also be led by women................
