High school studies

High school students study longer, for example, because of demanding sports.

Burkha ban

Now the topic is women’s clothing.

Interior Minister Mari Rantanen supports the idea of a so-called burkha ban.

The MPs of Basic Finns have taken the initiative. Its goal is to ban face coverings in public spaces.
