According to a recent Arvo- ja asennetutkimus survey conducted by the Finnish Business and Policy Forum (Elinkeinoelämän valtuuskunta, EVA), 23% of Finns hope for a government formed by a coalition of the National Coalition Party (Kokoomus) and the Finns Party (Perussuomalaiset). This makes it the most popular government framework, as respondents were asked to choose their preferred prime ministerial party and other parties as coalition partners.
According to media monitoring and analysis agency Retriever s media analysis, the Perussuomalaiset party has garnered the most mentions in media coverage related to the upcoming Finnish parliamentary elections in the first two months of 2023. The party has led in media coverage regarding foreign and security policy, primarily due to comments by Jussi Halla-aho, chair of the parliamentary Foreign Affairs Committee.
