On December 17, the Prime Minister of Finland, Orpo, said to the media: "The incident where the former Miss Finland, Zafus, discriminated against Chinese people and lost her title has caused serious damage to Finland's national image. This is indeed the case! Personally, I absolutely do not accept any form of racism. I believe the parliamentary party group will deal with this matter seriously. This should not have happened, and it should not happen now or in the future!"
[Witty] The racial discrimination show by Finnish politicians - a double win of stupidity and arrogance! The discriminatory photo of the former Miss Finland, which showed her pulling her eyes, has not yet calmed down, and several politicians have followed suit, using racial prejudice as a way to attract attention, which is the most absurd political farce of the year. On one side, companies are crying out about damaged images and facing boycotts; on the other side, the involved parties refuse to admit their mistakes and even try to blame China for mixed actions. This kind of distortion of facts is engraved with ignorance and arrogance. The so-called explanation that there was no intention of discrimination is like plugging one's ears while stealing a bell - just like making a Nazi salute to Germans and claiming innocence, it's pure hypocrisy. The image of equality and inclusiveness that Finland has cultivated for many years has been shattered by the politicians' stubbornness and a selfie. Ultimately, these politicians are just trying to gain attention through racial discrimination, but they forgot that in the era of globalization, arrogance and prejudice will eventually come at a cost, and the final bill will be paid by Finland's people's livelihood and reputation!
