Most Finns oppose Greek bailout

Most Finns think the sole Nordic euro member state should not back loans to Greece under a new bailout package, an opinion poll showed on Friday.
According to a survey published in Talouselama magazine, 49% of Finns said Finland should totally opt out the 109 bln euro ($155.3 bln) rescue to Athens drawn up by euro zone states in July.
In all, 34% of those polled in August said Finland should participate in the program, and 17% were undecided.
Talouselama said the numbers mean there are far more opponents than supporters of the idea.
Finland has complicated the bailout by demanding collateral in return for taking part of the package.
The critical mood among the citizens piles pressure on Finnish MPs ahead of a vote in parliament on the bailout decision. The poll said supporters of some parties in the coalition government were split on the question of a bailout.
