Finland Minister Nicolai Wammen (Social Democrats) received the government’s budget proposal for 2025 on Thursday, in a traditional ceremony where he personally helped unload the heavy budget documents from a truck into the Ministry of Finance. This act symbolically marked the end of extensive budget negotiations.

On Friday, the government will unveil their budget proposal at a press conference scheduled for 11 AM at the Ministry of Finance. During this event, both Minister Wammen and several key government officials will be present to elaborate on the contents and implications of the proposal. Among the speakers will be Minister of Interior and Health Sophie Løhde, Minister of Elderly Care Mette Kierkgaard, Minister of Economic Affairs Stephanie Lose, and Minister of Education and Research Christina Egelund, who also serves as the Minister of Culture. Additionally, the chairman of Danish Regions (Danske Regioner) Anders Kühnau will be attending, along with vice-chairman Mads Duedahl.

In addition to presenting the budget proposal itself, the government will also provide their economic report, marking the culmination of several months of intensive work. There are significant expectations regarding the financial priorities and initiatives that will be revealed.

Interested parties can follow the event in real-time through the government’s official social media channels, where updates and highlights from the presentation will be shared continuously.
