A new survey shows that 80 per cent of Finns believe trust in society has weakened in recent years, with confidence in the United States falling to one of the lowest levels among major global powers. The study, commissioned by SuomiAreena and the Nordic Council of Ministers and conducted by Verian, found that only 4 per cent of respondents believe the United States increases trust in the world. The figure places the US alongside China and India at 3 per cent and above Russia at 1 per cent.
