[1] Kekkonen tried to put the support of the majority of the parties behind him, because without it the President could not have long exercised his power fully.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

In order for the party to hold government responsibility, it had to show Kekkonen its foreign policy trustworthiness, that is, to accept Kekkonen and his foreign policy lines.

For example, the Coalition got into the government of Johannes Estonia after the note crisis, having demonstrated its loyalty to Kekko.

Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Public criticism weighed and indignant on the president, but his official position limited his ability to engage in open social debate.

Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Finnish newspapers included Helsingin Sanomat and Kauppalehti, as well as outdoor Estonians.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

According to Max Jakobson, it became apparent only much later that Kekkonen's visit had actually had a strong mental impact on the Estonians living in isolation.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

The visit of the Finnish head of state showed that they had not been forgotten in Finland and gave them faith again in their own national future.

Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

The aim was to avoid applying the YYA treaty so that Finland and the Soviet Union would have begun military cooperation, and thus to strengthen Finland's push for a policy of neutrality.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

After the occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1968, neutrality was even more troublesome.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Urho Kekkonen

There are different understandings on the background of exceptional law in historical studies.

Urho Kekkonen

According to Martti Häikö's interpretation, Kekkonen first forced Ahti Karjalainen to propose an extension in January 1972.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

He then appointed Rafael Paasio's minority government in February and called for an emergency law in April before the biggest parties, the Social Democrats and the Centre Party, would field their own candidates at party conferences in the summer.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

In particular, Ahti Karjalainen, who had been considered Kekkonen's mantle heir, and Johannes Virolainen, who was popular in the field and chairman of the centre.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[53] It was not easy to push through the exceptional law, as it could only be enacted by a majority of 5/6 in Parliament.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

In order to bring a majority behind the law, it was created in support of a political package with three parts: an emergency law, a free trade agreement with the EEC of the European Economic Community, and safeguard laws increasing the state's economic regulatory powers, which were advocated by the left.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Despite the package, Kalevi Sorsa's government failed to assemble the necessary qualified majority, so Kekkonen threatened in December that he would not be available for president.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Publicly, he claimed the so-called Zavidovo memo, which was leaked to the public in October, concerning discussions between him and the Soviet leadership.

Kekkonen and HS's longtime power figure Eljas Erkko had each sat in the pre-war Cajander government, and both had been prominent opponents of the far-right movement.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

After the wars, Kekkonen and Erko's perceptions of the Motherland interest differed sharply; Kekkonen felt that Moscow's might had to be recognized as fact, while Erkko sought Finnish support from the West.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

The cold intervals continued even in the period of Eljas Erko's son Aatos Erko.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

When the waiver law project surfaced in the spring of 1972, HS was initially staunchly opposed to it.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

However, attitudes changed when a free trade agreement with the EEC was linked to the extension of Kekkonen's term.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

The agreement, which came into force at the beginning of 1974, pushed Finland strongly towards the West, as Erko wanted, and HS's attitude towards Kekkonta softened.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[54] The death of Sylvi Kekkonen in early December 1974 was a very heavy blow for Urho Kekkonen.

However, the Nobel Committee of the Norwegian Grand Priorities awarded the prize to the Soviet nuclear physicist Andrei Sakharov.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

[55] [56] 1978—1982: Season 4 When serious opponents and contenders offered a real alternative did not appear, Kekkonen's power expanded, according to some estimates, even in some respects too strong.

Urho Kekkonen

Urho Kekkonen

Already at that point, he allowed himself to be chosen as the presidential candidate of the Social Democrats and the centrist for the 1978 elections.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

The SDP had time to ask the head of state to run for the nomination even before the centrist party.

Urho Kekkonen

[57] In the summer of 1979, the so-called Midsummer Bomb arose when Urho Kekkonen reproached the President of the Parliament, Johannes Estonian, for having “given false testimony about Finland's foreign policy” in his interview to Kuvalehti in Finland.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

According to Kekkonen, Estonia had again brought to full strength the debate on Finnishness, which Kekkonen felt that during his state visit to the Federal Republic of Germany a little earlier had succeeded in extinguishing.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[58] Throughout the 1970s, rumours began to circulate about the deteriorating health of the head of state and fluctuations in mental mood.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

In televised New Year's speeches, for example, the deterioration in the president's condition was often clearly noticeable.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

However, publicity and media sought to silence these rumors as a rule because they wanted to respect the privacy of the head of state.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[59] In all silence, the Ministry of Justice began to prepare for the possibility that Kekkonen would have to leave office before 1984, and the Permanent Secretary Kai Korte deposited the documents relating to the resignations of Kyösti Kallio and Gustaf Mannerheim.

Urho Kekkonen

During the winter and spring of 1981, the president's power had fluctuated sharply and in this case he had seriously considered suspending his tenure.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[61] The end of Kekkonen's sovereign power has been marked by April 1981, when Prime Minister Mauno Koivisto refused to resign, despite the fact that he had been quite explicitly urged to do so from Tamminiemi.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Koivisto broke the Kekkonen pattern by pointing out that, according to the Constitution, the government in Finland must enjoy the confidence of the Parliament and not the president in the first place.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[37] The event has also been considered to have marked the beginning of the final collapse of Kekkonen's mental and physical condition.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

The president felt he had suffered such a severe public prestige defeat that he no longer recovered from the shock it caused.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[64] According to different views, it was either censorship or respect for an old person.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

According to Juha Engström, Kekkonen's adjutant, the crash was caused by glare and strong spectacles that caused the president not to see the lowest step of the plane's stairs.

Urho Kekkonen

Photos of the situation at the time of the incident were also not released.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[70] [71] [72] During Kekkonen's sick leave, a debate took place among the legal scholars as to how to establish the President's permanent inhibition to the exercise of his office.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Professor of Administrative Law Veli Merikoski considered that the question of the President's permanent inhibition should be referred to Parliament by the Government, for which the provisions of the form of government did not provide a basis.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[73] Officially, Kekkonen resigned from the post of President of the Republic on 27 October 1981.

Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Kekkonen's goal, in his own words, was to defragment the country politically from left to right, and he tried to do so, often without success, to create joint coalition governments of all parties (civil service governments were practically such).


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

As for the Coalition, this was not successful due to fierce opposition from the left-wing parties, and Kekkonen attempted in his last active months to overthrow the Koivisto II government and create a bourgeois government composed of Keskus and Coalition in its place.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

He justified this as well as the admission of the SKP into government at one time: “one quarter of the people cannot be insulated from political decision-making”, and the vast majority of the Coalition were already in favour of Kekkonen for a good journey from the 1970s.

The importance of Kekkonen to Jews and Roma people on 22 August 1938, while Kekkonen was serving as Minister of the Interior, Finland refused to allow the “m/s Ariadne” ship carrying around 60 Austrian Jewish refugees into Finland.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

These Jewish refugees converted from Finland have been brought to know “Kekkonen as Jews”, as Kekkonen ultimately bore responsibility for what happened.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[108] On 10 February 1939, the far-right Patriotic People's Movement raised concerns in its parliamentary poll that it was unreasonable for Jewish refugee gangs to permanently enter Finland to enjoy the right to asylum while Finns are unemployed.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Minister of the Interior Kekkonen replied that “the number of refugees referred to in the survey is relatively low in Finland, which is due to the fact that the Government has taken all necessary measures in time to prevent the influx of refugees from Central Europe heading to our country”.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

According to Kekkonen, “The Government's intention is, of course, without violating international customs concerning the state right of asylum, to constantly prevent the mass displacement of refugees into our country, which does not mean that entry permits cannot be issued in individual cases.” [109] In autumn 1942, Kekkonen stated that “a concentration camp for the Gypsies (Roma) must be set up for the Gypsies (Gypsies), and they will not survive by the way.”


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[110] Around the same time, he wrote in the Finnish Kuvalehicle under the pseudonym Pekka Peitsi how the Roma are a group of work-wrenching, idly strolling gangs, which “forms a flagrant discord in the sound of work and effort that the country is flooding”.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[111] The Kekkonen camp proposal was put into action and in January 1943, Finland's first labour camp for Roma men began operation.

Roma women also found themselves in a similar camp.

In 1976, Kekkonen published a two-volume collection of his correspondence to some extent under the name Letters from My Mill.

Urho Kekkonen

The publication of the collection of letters prompted the term mill letter to become established for several years in political parlance.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

The title of my work was combined with the name of French Alphonse Daudet's short story collection Letters from My Mill.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[115] [116] However, Kekkonen denied that these Letters from My Mill were anything to do with Daudet's short stories published in 1869, as his mill is entirely different from Daudet's romantic poet's hideout, from which “pleadings anonymous to the recipient” are sent.


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

Instead, Kekkonen characterised his letter mill as “a roaring, knuckling, pounding and grinding mill from which letters from the mill fire to well-defined recipients.”


Question: Where was Urho Kekkonen born?

Urho Kekkonen

[117] Kekkonen was planning a three-part series of memoirs, of which he could publish only the first volume, my Century 1, to 1936, before his health failed.

Kekkonen's publication in 1980 of Tamminieme, on which he compiled his domestic and foreign policy line pulls, has been considered his political will.
