THE ACTIONS of the Parliament’s Constitutional Law Committee pose an unprecedented threat to rule of law in Finland, Kaarlo Tuori, one of the most internationally prominent legal scholars in Finland, argued in a rare interview with Helsingin Sanomat on Saturday.
He viewed that the threat culminated in the position the committee adopted recently on a government bill for a new border security act – one that would essentially enable the government to ignore binding international human rights obligations to safeguard national security.
