  • Mr. Petteri Orpo Minister of Finance of Finland Leader of Kokoomus, the National Coalition Party
    1(8) FIIA Seminar 18 January 2018: A Comprehensive Reform Package for the EU Mr. Petteri Orpo Minister of Finance of Finland Leader of Kokoomus, the National Coalition Party Your excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, good morning! First of all, I would like to thank you, Mr. Emmanouilidis, and your team for the report Re-energising Europe. It is a great contribution to an important discussion on the future of Europe, to which president Juncker, president Macron and many others, including the still conditional Grand Coalition deal in Germany, have also contributed during the last six months. The report states that European cooperation is not an ideology, but a necessity. Many of us Finns can agree with that statement, since we are here at the far end of Europe. Our economy is very dependent on exports. Isolation is not an option for us. In fact, none of the European countries can flourish on its own. None of us is big enough. We need each other. European Union is far from perfect, but its future direction is up to its member states and citizens. Brexit has forced the remaining EU Member States, the EU27, to think about the vision and mission of the EU after the UK has left. Against all odds, Brexit has pulled us together. Difficulties with Brexit have shown us how bad a choice it is to exit the EU. The future of the UK is unclear; investments and its trade relationships are on hold. 2(8) FIIA Seminar 18 January 2018: A Comprehensive Reform Package for the EU Fortunately, the negotiations took a turn for the better in December.

The problem is that not all customers are nice people. The opposite is true. Many a whinger is only happy when he can vent his anger. Raising his voice and attracting attention, he is thus taken more serious than somebody who uses balanced words to express a well- founded opinion. While a private company can decide for itself how to deal with criticism on the internet, mints always have to consider a third party: politics.

  • Law and Order Do Not Always Go Together. Vigilantism As Citizens Attempt to Enforce Order Outside the Law Is Rising
    “Law and order do not always go together. Vigilantism as citizens attempt to enforce order outside the law is rising. Comprehensive studies about the phe- nomenon have been lacking. The 17 case studies and the conceptual and com- parative discussion by the editors go a long way to fill the void. A must read in these times of rising populism and xenophobia.” - Prof. em. Alex P. Schmid, Editor-in-Chief of ‘Perspectives on Terrorism’ and former Officer-in-Charge of the Terrorism Prevention Branch of UNODC. “Theoretically astute, empirically sound, this volume is the authoritative source on the growing phenomena of vigilantism around the world. This study is essential reading for anyone who is interested in understanding the changing nature of coercion, and the shifting relations of social and political order in the 21st century.” - James Sheptycki, York University, Canada. “Vigilantism poses a serious threat to democracy. It is therefore an important, yet understudied phenomenon in criminology. This edited volume raises important issues regarding the conditions under which different kinds of vigilantism emerge. Using case studies from different countries, this edited volume provides challenging new insights which are of importance to both academics and policy makers.” - Prof. Lieven Pauwels, Ghent University, Belgium. “This book is richly researched and extremely timely. The spread of vigilantism in our increasingly fractured world should stimulate debate about the nature and significance of state power, whether ‘private’ vigilante actors are in fact detached from their governments, and when right-wing vigilantism becomes a necessary component of state Fascist operations.” - Prof. Martha K. Huggins, Tulane University (emerita), USA.

  • Dear President Tusk, April 2, 2020 As Leaders of EPP Member Parties With
    Dear President Tusk, April 2, 2020 As leaders of EPP member parties with deep roots in our respective countries’ center-right and pro- European political traditions, we wish to express our deep concern with the political developments in Hungary, in particular the law passed by the Hungarian parliament on March 30th, which allows the Hungarian government to indefinitely extend the country’s state of emergency and allows Prime Minister Viktor Orbán to rule by decree. This is a clear violation of the founding principles of liberal democracy and European values. The fight against covid-19 requires extensive measures, however the virus cannot be used as a pretext to extend the state of emergency indefinitely. We fear that Prime Minister Orbán will use his newly achieved power to further extend the government’s grip on civil society. The EPP has a commitment to safeguard liberal democracy, the indisputable right of the individual and the rule of law, which are fundamental principles, upon which not only our political family, but indeed the European Union is founded. We have followed the degradation of the Hungarian rule of law for some time. Fidesz is currently suspended from the EPP due to its failure to respect the principle of rule of law. However, the recent developments have confirmed our conviction that Fidesz, with its current policies, cannot enjoy full membership in the EPP. We wish to express our full support to President Donald Tusk and the entire EPP leadership in upholding the integrity of our political family. We call on the expulsion of Fidesz from the EPP in accordance with article 9 of the EPP statutes.

It was commissioned in 2013 by the governments of Colombia, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Norway, South Korea, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. The Global Commission, comprising, 28 former heads of government and finance ministers, and leaders in the fields of economics, business and finance, operates as an independent body and, while benefiting from the support of the partner governments, has been given full freedom to reach its own conclusions.
