Finland's European Affairs Minister Alexander Stubb for his part told Reuters news agency that his country was 100 percent devoted to the euro and added that the foreign minister's speculation did not reflect the view of the whole government

Sounds like a suicide pact to me.

I have a close friend who is high in the Finnish Military. He was visiting about two years ago and predicted the Euro would fail within 5 years. Looks like his predictions are ahead of schedule.

Finland is an interesting country. It is socialistic in it’s attitudes concerning social welfare, but VERY conservative financially. They pay their bills - and don’t like owing anyone. Finns are fiercely independent. Example: They are the only nation to pay-off their WW1 war debt!

What you see here is their government seeing the head-lights of the on-coming train and planning on getting of the tracks! I’ve got no fears for Finland...just our own country!
