Finnish opposition parties are sharpening their criticism of Prime Minister Petteri Orpo after the government approved a 35-million-euro investment subsidy for the Garden Helsinki project. The decision has drawn immediate political scrutiny, with questions growing over the basis for the support.

The funding concerns a major project in Helsinki, and the main issue now is transparency. Several opposition parties are calling for more information about the decision-making process and the criteria used to award the subsidy.

Yle News reported that the pressure on the government is increasing as opposition lawmakers seek a fuller explanation. The issue is likely to remain in focus as the debate over public spending and government priorities continues.
