Finnish Government Minister Wille Rydman, who recently replaced a predecessor who resigned due to racist views and links to neo-Nazi groups, is now embroiled in a racist scandal. Messages he sent to his ex-girlfriend were published, including derogatory remarks about Somalis and Middle Eastern people, as well as offensive lyrics from a song. Rydman also made a racially insensitive comment about his own inheritance. The editor-in-chief of a newspaper published the messages, stating a public interest in the minister and his views. Finnish political leaders have criticized Rydman's language, and he may face legal action for the publication of the messages.
