Finland has received more judgments handed down by the European Court of Human Rights than the rest of the Nordic countries together over the past 15 years.
According to the newspaper Turun Sanomat, Finland has received a total of 75 binding decisions, of which all but one have been made over the past 15 years.
Sweden, for example, has received a total of 22 court judgments, Norway 19, Denmark 9 and Iceland just one.
In April, the European Court of Human Rights reprimanded Finland over the eight-year long case of a Helsinki man. The court intends to hear nine Finnish cases concerning questions of freedom of speech.
Finland has, so far, lost three-quarters of its cases before the court.
