Finland's parliament approves world's youngest prime minister
by Reuters Tuesday, 10 December 2019 HELSINKI, Dec 10 (Reuters) - Finland's parliament approved the nomination on Tuesday of 34-year-old Social Democrat Sanna Marin as the world's youngest serving prime minister.
Out of the parliament's 200 members, 99 voted in favour and 70 against her nomination. Thirty deputies were absent.
"Within four years we won't complete Finland but it can become better... I want to build a society in which every child can become anything and in which every human being can live and grow old with dignity," Marin wrote on Twitter.
Finland's government resigned last week after the Centre Party said it had lost confidence in Social Democrat Prime Minister Antti Rinne over his handling of a postal strike.
After parliament's approval, Finland's president was expected to nominate Marin's five-party coalition cabinet, consisting of 12 female and 7 male ministers.
