Harry Harkimo and his party Liike Nyt do not accept the debt brake agreement in its current form. According to HBL, the issue has drawn attention because it concerns the direction of economic policy and the conditions for limiting public debt.

Harkimo’s position means Liike Nyt is, for now, opposing the deal as it has been drafted. It is still unclear whether the party will change its stance more broadly or how it will proceed on the matter next.
