Former Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin said there are not enough women running the show in European politics. \u201cI think we have had more women leadership in Nordic countries [than elsewhere] because of our society model,\u201d she told POLITICO\u2019s Power Play podcast. \u201cBut \u2026 there\u2019s still a gap also in the Nordics, and we should really ask why is this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre we supporting women enough? Because women are not worse than men \u2026 They are very capable, they are talented, they\u2019re brave,\u201d she said. \u201cBut for some reason our societies are built in a way [that stops women from attaining leadership roles],\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Marin, a star of the European center-left, served as prime minister of Finland from 2019 to 2023, presiding over a female-majority Cabinet. Her popularity suffered at home over the country\u2019s rising debt. She narrowly lost an election in April 2023 and stepped down as the chair of her Social Democrats party, joining the Tony Blair Institute as a strategic counsellor in September.<\/p>\n<p>Of the 27 EU member country leaders attending the European Council this week, four are women, along with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Parliament chief Roberta Metsola. Marin said European countries need to be \u201cbetter partners\u201d with NATO, adding that Finland made the right decision to join the alliance. She was Finnish prime minister when Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine and oversaw Finland\u2019s entry into NATO.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEverybody needs to really make sure that we have those capabilities that we do not only depend on U.S. help because we also have to make sure that our own backyard is safe and secure,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m very happy that Finland is a part of NATO and we are a member of NATO because of Russia, because Russia attacked Ukraine,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Marin dismissed speculation that she is eyeing a comeback in Finnish politics or a role in Brussels, saying she \u201cwould never say never\u201d but is \u201cnot looking for institutional positions.\u201d \u201cYou will always, if you are prime minister, you will represent your government and you will represent the collective decision making of your own government and your own parliament,\u201d she said. \u201cNow I\u2019m free, so I can say whatever I want. That\u2019s nice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/sanna-marin-female-leaders-europe-finland-nordics-women\/\">Politico<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/sanna-marin-too-few-female-leaders-in-europe\/\">Sanna Marin: \u2018Too few\u2019 female leaders in Europe<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[15081,4880,606,607,608,568],"class_list":["post-131960","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-european-politics","tag-sanna-marin","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien","tag-women"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131960","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=131960"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131960\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131960"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=131960"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=131960"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
