Speaker of Parliament
Anu Vehviläinen (Cen) has condemned a threatening tweet sent by MP
Ano Turtiainen and said she intends to bring the matter before Parliament when MPs return from the Easter holiday.
In his tweet, Turtiainen said that his friend is ready to kill if the wearing of masks becomes mandatory in Finland. My friend said I am willing to kill if someone in this country is forced to put on a mask , Turtiainen wrote. Well, I wouldn t just watch that from the sidelines either. Greetings to colleagues who are in favour of a mask mandate.
