It's been a busy week across the north of Europe so just in time for some weekend reading, here's a taste of our @euronews reporting of some pretty fascinating stories you might not have seen elsewhere:
🇩🇰 Starting with the general election in #Denmark, won by incumbent PM Mette Frederiksen who leads a left-wing bloc of parties:

🇩🇰 And what did we learn in the aftermath of the vote? I took a look at 5⃣ takeaways: from would-be kingmakers, to the ups & downs of the far-right and the outsize influence of 🇬🇱 #Greenland and 🇫🇴 #Faroes

🇳🇴 #Norway raised its military alert level this week around critical energy infrastructure sites, after reports of drone sightings and concerns over possible 🇷🇺 Russian involvement.

🇫🇮 In #Finland, PM Sanna Marin has apologised to the Sámi people for lack of progress on guaranteeing human rights for indigenous people. That apology came after our story last week which highlighted the underreported problem. Journalism matters.

🇫🇮 Staying in #Finland for a moment, and @MarinSanna was cleared of any wrongdoing after complaints were filed that she neglected her official duties while partying with friends this summer (remember the dancing videos?)

🇸🇪 A Swedish man was charged with terrorism this week, after the stabbing death of a woman near the popular #Almedalen political festival on the island of Gotland in July. euronews.com/2022/11/01/swe…
🇪🇪 #Estonia has the highest inflation in the eurozone, and this week I talked with two families and a supermarket chain to find out what it's like to balance the weekly grocery shopping bill with rising fuel prices

🇪🇪 Staying with #Estonia again here, is it the most under-rated country in Europe? I can totally buy into that argument, yes! It's a fantastic place! euronews.com/travel/2022/11…
🇸🇪 Here's an intriguing #Sweden story: was the man investigating the Nord Stream pipeline explosions really killed by a bee sting and cremated within hours? That's one conspiracy theory circulating online, so @MTHolroyd took a closer look:

🇳🇴 #Norway is raising its targets for cutting emissions, but at the same time won't abandon the (lucrative) oil industry 🧐 How does that even add up? My colleague @RosiecoFrost reported:

🇸🇪🇫🇮 This story has been rumbling on for months but has a recent flurry of diplomatic activity pushed #Turkey and #Hungary any closer to approving NATO membership for #Sweden and #Finland?

🇸🇪🇳🇴 And finally... it's apparently really easy to get confused between Halland and Haaland. One is a picturesque coastal region of western Sweden... and one is a famous Norwegian footballer. But which is which? ⚽️ euronews.com/2022/11/02/hal…
