Finland the umbrella organization of the youth sector, Allianssi, has asked the presidential candidates how they would involve young people in peace work.
The other presidential candidates told how important young people are. Candidate of Basic Finns, Speaker of the Parliament Jussi Halla-aho considered the question impossible.
