Petteri Orpo released a video in honor of Finland’s Eurovision representatives, which has upset some Finns.

Prime minister Petteri Orpon (kok) flamethrower video shares opinions on social media.

Orpo posted a video on Instagram on Saturday afternoon in which he fires a flamethrower into the air for a moment. The video was a good luck wish for Linda Lampenius and Pete Parkkosen, who will compete on Saturday night to win the Eurovision Song Contest with their song Flamethrower.

– Good luck in the final Linda and Pete, bring the win home! Orpo says in the video.

Some Finns thought Orpo’s video was brilliant and stylish. However, some Finns have regretted the Prime Minister’s action.

– Petteri burning the rest of the voters.

– Downright embarrassing.

– If you wish there was a video made with artificial intelligence, it’s this one.

– This is how it makes the poor squat.

– Embarrassing, the election debates have started.

– Button of shame.

– Did I go a little overboard?

Some Finns think the prime minister’s video is inappropriate, especially because of the government’s cuts. Among other things, the government has cut Yle, which annually selects Finland’s Eurovision representative through the New Music competition.

– Now that the appropriations from Yle have been cut first, then a virtue signal for profit. Will Orpo’s wallet be used to organize visas next year if the win clicks today?

– When scissors are no longer enough.

– At the same time that the government is cutting culture, education and youth, Petteri Orpo is now trying to ride on Finland’s Eurovisa success as if it were the government’s merit. Creative success is born from factors and culture, not from first weakening them and then posing next to achievements.

– Yes, hopefully the government and parliament will arrange money for Yle if there is a win.

Finnish time, on the night between Saturday and Sunday, the fifth prize will be decided in the Wiener Stadthalle in Vienna, Austria. Iltalehti follows the progress of the final night closely throughout the weekend.
