The four-party government coalition revealed the contents of its anti-racism statement at a press conference on Thursday afternoon.

That's not why I posted this here, though:

The government will also probe the possibility of outlawing the political use of certain symbols, including the swastika as used by Nazi Germany as well as the hammer and sickle that appeared on the former Soviet Union flag.

    The basic finn alt-right party said right after the presser for this that "we are not changing our policy as a party". So they might ban Holocaust denial on paper, but they made crystal clear they aren't banning it in their fascist party.
