Juha Sipilä (born 1961)

Born 1961 CE.

Juha Petri Sipilä (born 25 April 1961) is a Finnish former politician who served as Prime Minister of Finland from 2015 to 2019. A relative newcomer to politics, he had a successful background in business. He was the leader of the Centre Party from 2012 to 2019. After leading the Centre party to victory in the 2015 general election, Sipilä formed a centre-right coalition and was appointed prime minister by the Finnish Parliament on 29 May 2015. On 8 March 2019, Sipilä stated his intention to resign as prime minister, citing difficulties in reforming Finland's health care system. President Sauli Niinistö asked him to continue with a caretaker government until a new government coalition was appointed on 6 June 2019 and was ultimately succeeded by Antti Rinne.
