the social democrats and the coalition party. and so you don't know exactly if voters who supported them now are really voting for their policies, which as i mentioned, include pulling finland out of the european union. and it remains to be seen if they can turn out voters. this is a real concern for the fins party. people may say in polling that they're there for them, but it doesn't mean that they'll turn out on election day. so really this morning, all the parties are urging their supporters to get out and cast their balance because this is so close, it could come down to a very small number of votes term. going to ask you to play prognosticator for a moment. what's the likely outcome the pollsters don't know, and i certainly don't either. and while we say these 3 parties are neck and neck, they truly are within one percentage point of each other in the pulling. and so it really will come down until the very last moment of counting balance before you know, which party will lead as we headed into the balloting today, it was the

social democrat, prime minister, santa marin, is hoping to secure a 2nd term in office. but she's facing a strong challenge from the far right. finish my minister son amarion, cast her ballad early as did almost 40 percent to finish voters, a record. but it will come down to the last minute to see if mar, in social democrats can pull ahead of their 2 main rivals. the conservative coalition party and the populist fins party with nato membership in hand. the impact of neighboring russia's war on ukraine has not dominated debates. finished. voters are focused on finances. the fact that the all public finances are embellished it's in some countries is not the nice you've, it's would move the population in. feel under these that's not going well. there's a huge service deficit i and the into, to extend that. now the amount fealand is paying on the, it's that these amounts to do some of our ministry spots, et cetera, et cetera. though, finish public debt at 72 percent of g. d. p is far lower than the eurozone average . it's uncomfortably high for finland. taking over in 2019,

they have many times compared the cells to the social democrats in denmark but they can also be comparedit is possible they could form a government with the national coalition party.— coalition party. where does this leave _ coalition party. where does this leave the _ coalition party. where does this leave the left, - coalition party. where does this leave the left, things i this leave the left, things like the green party and those sorts of causes? is that in the water now? is a permanent switch right?— switch right? nothing is permanent _ switch right? nothing is permanent in _ switch right? nothing is permanent in politics i switch right? nothing is. permanent in politics but switch right? nothing is- permanent in politics but right now it it is a huge loss for the left party. both the greens and the left alliance. all the parties in the current government, except for the social democrats led by sanna marin our suffering. they not doing well right now but probably if they are in opposition for the next years, they might come back at some point even stronger but right now greens and t

it's not an impossible match for the social democrats and the national coalition to find common ground to form a government together, but they will still need a 3rd party to complete a majority government. so any sort of government coalition in finland under the current constellation of parties always tends to need a 3rd. so there is moderation and a lot of compromises and a lot of detail making that goes into creating a finnish coalition government. i'd like to ask you, let's turn to the international level now because finland shares a border with russia. it is set to join nieto as early as next week. what impact will these elections have on finland's foreign policy? well, as i said, because of the compromising and even if it's part of which is your skeptic, if they are the government party with the national coalition, the national coalition does have a positive outlook towards europe in union. so i wouldn't think that there is a huge shift in finish foreign policy. the nato application was done in, in a common effort between, across the entire parliament. so that, that has white supp

social democrat, prime minister, a santa marina, hoping to secure a 2nd term in office. but she's facing a strong challenge from the far right leader rica pura so let's get more on this story. and now for my finished colleague and freelance correspondence, and as far as de anna, welcome. this is a knife edge election. we know results of the pre vote. just coming in, can you tell us what they're telling us about how this is shaping on? yeah, the pre vote indeed represents around half of to vote. that will be cast in these elections when we're looking at quite high turn out around 80 percent and total. so you know, 40 percent record number of people voting ahead of election day. and those results are just fresh and the conservative. so the national coalition party has 20.8 percent of the vote, followed very tightly by the social democrats 20.7 percent of the vote. and then the fins party coming in the 3rd at 18.6 percent. but this knife, it's feeling off of the election hasn't subsided yet, so especially supporters of the nationalist party as well as smaller parties such a

but it will come down to the last minute to see if martin social democrats can pull ahead of their 2 main rivals. the conservative coalition party and the populist fins ready with nato membership in hand. the impact of neighboring russia's war on ukraine has not dominated debates. finished. voters are focused on finances. the fact that the all public finances are in balance, it's in some countries, is not an issue, it's would move the pollution mean feel under these. that's not going well, this a tutor the deficits. i can do to extend that now the amount fealand is paying on the it's that these amounts to do some of our ministry spots. if it's a threat settler though, finish public debt at 72 percent of g. d, p is far lower than the eurozone average. it's uncomfortably high for finland. taking over in 2019 at sun m r in successfully navigated finland through cove, it, and into nato. but while she's extremely popular abroad, thanks in part to a leaked video last year of her dancing with friends, her economic moves are criticized at home debt, climbed under her watch yet. she's campaig

because son, martin says, social democrats say they refuse to go into a coalition with the fins. they get, their coalition party says it would join up, but to others of the current government coalition, the greens in the left say that they also will not join a party with the fins to eye surgery jointed government coalition with the fins. so that could be very, very messy. and so in addition to finding out what the vote counts are what the parliamentary seats are, when results come in later today, people are going to be talking about how on earth do we form another government? it's going to be tough, whoever's going to be in charge. well, luckily you keep an eye on it for us still be usa. terry shows they're reporting from brussels. thank you so much. terry. russia has taken over the rotating presidency of the united nations security council, sparking a furious reaction in ukraine in his daily address, ukraine's president of a lot of mister lensky deemed it absurd. and he called the council and bankrupt institution. he says it ought to be reformed. so as not to allow a terrorist s

so they have cast her ballot for the social democrats, for instance. since they don't want to see nationalists in the lead. so that would presumably be a good news for prime minister santa maria. how likely do you think she is to get a 2nd term? well, it's not ruled out yet, and it's, it's indeed possible and that's quite the achievement for a sitting prime minister. so normally this doesn't happen that you know, someone who was the face of the nation in sort of the period before would be re elected. but she seems to have made it and she made a lot of tough decisions. it was quite the for years she had 1st with the cove it pandemic, then, obviously with the war in ukraine, the situation developing there. and then the energy crisis. and also i, you have to say that internationally. she is a phase that's now being recognized. she's even this icon for feminist politics, a young female leader, and that popularity also carries domestically. and you mentioned the war in ukraine . let's speak a little bit more about finland's role insecurity. we know finland

it is possible but with sanna marin needing the social democrats it is going to be difficult.round with the true finns party on the right but there are a lot of issues splitting there are a lot of issues splitting the right, especially by the european union —— european union. what is their key message? who have they struck a chord with? i what is their key message? who have they struck a chord with?— they struck a chord with? i think they struck a chord with? i think they capitalised _ they struck a chord with? i think they capitalised the _ they struck a chord with? i think they capitalised the energy - they struck a chord with? i think. they capitalised the energy crisis, they capitalised the energy crisis, they talked a lot about it —— about they talked a lot about it —— about the rising energy prices in finland and also immigration, that has been one of the other issues dominating the election, immigration for, to get more labour into finland from other countries and from outside the eu and the true finns where the only party that was saying no, mostly no to these plans, t

social democrat, prime minister, santa marina's hoping to secure a 2nd term in office that she's facing a strong challenge from far ride leader enrica porter. and we asked dw brussels correspondent, terry schultz. how the election was going. we expect turn out to be very high monica in part because in early voting and absentee voting, 40 percent of fins already cast their ballots so it's clear that interest is very high with a race. this close, as i mentioned there in the report, the 3 leading parties are within the margin of error, even in, in the pre both polling. they were as little as one percentage point between the 1st place and the 3rd place party, which is at this point, a prime minister son in lawrence. so interest is very high and i would expect a high turn out even in person voting today. right. so a very tight race above the nationalist fins party has gained attraction in the previous years. why are they so popular? certainly in the last election as well. they were very popular and you know, for the other parties were a risk to take the top spot. and you never know with part

so which way are you going to go with the funds on the far right or with the social democrats? well, that's the one thing that we, i see when the in the coming weeks are coming is so it's, it's been an amazing election night. we just won and now we were math, 10 more seats. so it was our craig night and now now we are. the next thing is to focus to get to governments ready so, so it's gonna be a very exciting week ahead. any indication at this point in time on which way you think the party will go? well, oh, it's too early to say anything about that. so our prime minister candidates at that order, but we'll, we'll leave that negotiations and it's gonna be a tight negotiation in, in any case, see, so that's something that we don't not know yet. okay. as we heard in the storage assembly of the economy was one of the driving issues of the selection. how is the ncp going to tackle, you know, potential looming recession and, and the rising cost of living? yeah, i finished, people were very concerned about state depth and all the economical issues. and now it's our ha such, try to ba

that actually it has been like my majority for social democrats that they know that we need people to, to come to this country. i don't, i think the most is, wasn't with immigration. that of course, the concern for true friends was that in their various nathan tray, can there, nationalistic, anti immigrant? but that's not the main point white while they last. okay, well thank you very much camila. so to nova, for joining us there from helsinki. and so could you it's looking like another close result in bulgaria is latest election. it's the 5th one there in 2 years with coalitions led by 2 former prime ministers, just less than one percent apart. exit polls, but the pro western block of reformist carol petracola in the lead with 25.6 percent of the vote. a center right block led by boy co bars of is in 2nd place with around 24.8 percent. or gary is a member of the un nato, but it also has historical ties with russia. inflation has been a problem, accusations of corruption and the war in ukraine. these have all been major campaign issues. meanwhile, in montana grove, former economy mini

but it will come down to the last minute to see if marin social democrats can pull ahead of their 2 main rivals. the conservative coalition party and the populace fins, party with nato membership in hand. the impact of neighboring russia's war on ukraine has not dominated debates. finished. voters are focused on finances. the fact that our public finances are embellished it's in some countries is not the need to be to move the population in. feel under these that's not going well. this a tutor the deficits i and the extent that now the amount finland is paying on the step. this amounts to do some of our ministry spots it, et cetera, et cetera. though, finish public debt at 72 percent of g. d p is far lower than the euro zone average . it's uncomfortably high for finland. taking over in 2019 as the youngest head of state in the world. santa marin successfully navigated finland through, covet and into nato. but while she's extremely popular abroad, thanks in part to a leaked video last year of her dancing with friends, her economic are criticized at home debt, climbed under her watch yet.

the social democrats and the coalition party. and so you don't know exactly if voters who support them now are really voting for their policies. which as i mentioned, include pulling finland out of the european union. and it remains to be seen if they can turn out voters. this is a real concern for the fins party. people may say in polling that they're there for them, but it doesn't mean that they'll turn out on election day. so really this morning, all the parties are urging their supporters to get out and cast their balance because this is so close, it could come down to a very small number of votes, t w's, terry schultz, them. well, paris is one of the most densely populated cities in europe. in recent years, the administration has opened new bike lanes and reduced parking spots to de congest. the city part of its green mobility drive are also some $15000.00 shared electrical scooters. but their days could be numbered to referendum is being held to decide whether those scooters should be banned. a paris correspondence on your

we are here in the social democratic party. nice events. well, following that isms which are changing by the minute actually every 5 minutes while i finish the process of death. and as you says, the latest forecast says that the when will be for the national coalition party, the conservative party send a marion might not be the prime minister in the next 4 years. she's the best individual candidates so far. she's and that lead individually, but it's not about the individual as of course it's about classes. so we're looking at this results. $78.00, the 7 percent of the results are counted so far. it's very quick, very fast because 40 percent of the electorate, they voted in advance. and 60 the other 60 percent. they voted today, after 3 hours flows in the polls. now we don't have the fixture. so it seems like the country is heading towards the right actually because even for a married party, the social didn't for thought the chance visit the way i said, even if they improve their performance and the last a couple of hours before the final re

we hope that the social democrats will win this election, this is important because we want to remainends to cooperate with me on an international level. and what kind of international cooperation in question is understandable. current premier she tried the last 2 weeks before the elections to catch everything in kiev and even mentioned the possibility of transferring decommissioned fighter jets to ukraine, by the way, for the rating. marin came and the news from turkey president erdogan approved on saturday in the decision of the couples. the law of ratification has already been published in the official gazette on the kind entry of finland by ignat , and our alliance will become stronger and safer than ever. will soon increase clear that even if the election of the government of finland sfor? here is the opposition, then the global change in the course will not happen and after the completion of formal procedures, another neighbor of russia will officially become a member of nato, but the problem of sweden to the alliance, only to be decided to persuade ankara, most likely, will hav

i think it should be changed to social democrat. >> i have no idea why bernie sanders does what he does or doesn't do. i agree i feel the phrase democratic-socialist is not helpful and think it is a shame he uses it but one of the things that is important to point out, we could have a long conversation about european social democracy in the different ways in which many metrics shows it works better in terms of health and well-being and happiness. the evidence is really clear and we talk about that toward the end of our book. but also, you don't have to go into social democracy. you can go into the history of this country. one thing i like to quote a lot is under dwight eisenhower who was a republican. the marginal tax rate on the wealthiest americans was 90%. that would be staggering today. hard enough to get people to talk about a minimum wage of $20 an hour. if we were to propose marginal tax rate of 95%, people would say they are definitely communists. but the reality is, with a lifetime of some of the people in this room, that was what we did in this country. under a republican pres
