Freedom Alliance (Finland)
The Freedom Alliance, abbreviated  (), is a Finnish registered party. The party received the required 5,000 signatures on 19 April 2022 and was registered on 6 May 2022. Background
The background of several key people in the party is the Power Belongs to the People (VKK) party, led by Ano Turtiainen. Ossi Tiihonen, the chairman of the Freedom Alliance, was one of the prominent members of the VKK, and Cia Grönberg, the party secretary, was the director of VKK's membership in the 2022 regional elections. All members and officials could not accept VKK's views on Russia's invasion of Ukraine in the spring of 2022. The position of the VKK was relatively pro-Russian and pro-Putin. According to Turtiainen, the reason was not related to appeasing Russia, but to the characteristics of the people who left the party: they were self-interested, the structure of the VKK was designed to prevent it, and the party conflict in the VKK disappeared with them. Politicians
The party already has elected politicians at the time of its registration. Tiihonen, the chairman of the party and Lohja city councilor will move to the Freedom Alliance group, as will Grönberg and Heli Rämäkkö elected in the county elections. The party ran in the 2023 general election but won no seats. The party is planning on running for the 2024 Finnish presidential election with Saara Huhtasaari as their candidate. Party Ideology 
The party is strictly against the European Union, proclaiming it to be a lawless, communist and blaming it for problems of Finland and wishes for Finland to leave the EU. The Freedom Alliance is also strictly against NATO and any alliances or relations with the United States, proclaiming the US to be a military and geopolitical pawn, who is crushing Finland's sovereignty. The party is also anti-green and believes that climate change is a myth and that the EU is at the fore-front of what they call, "climate fanaticism", which the party states is only made to hurt the Finnish people. The Freedom Alliance also against any sanctions against Russia and Finland is "shooting themselves in their foot", they deny being for the Russian Invasion of Ukraine and even affiliated with Russia, instead they say the removal of sanctions is for national interests. The party proclaims to be for broad freedom of speech, increasing direct democracy, the removal of Pakkoruotsi, VAT and the reduction of taxes for entrepreneurs. Along with this they wish to reinstate the Markka and increase Finland's self-sufficiency and wishes to remove incitement to ethnic or racial hatred from the criminal code.
