Finnish Parliament votes in favor of NATO membership

Finnish lawmakers voted on Tuesday in favor of requesting NATO membership. The vote came after parliament’s foreign affairs committee recommended the move due to a threat supposedly posed by Russian foreign policy to Europe.

The 200-seat body overwhelmingly supported the application, with 188 lawmakers backing the decision and just eight voting against it.
