Prime Minister Petteri Orpo's coalition has introduced labour market reforms and cuts to social welfare that angered labour unions, which launched widespread strikes in March and April.

The government said Finland's defence spending will increase by 488 million euros to 6.5 billion mainly due to the acquisition of a new fighter jet fleet.
