Paavo Tapio Lipponen (pronounced[ˈpɑːʋoˈlipːonen]ⓘ; born 23 April 1941) is a Finnish politician and former reporter.[1] He was prime minister of Finland from 1995 to 2003,[2] and chairman of the Social Democratic Party of Finland from 1993 to 2005. He also served as speaker of the Parliament of Finland from 2003 to 2007[3] and was his party's nominee in the 2012 Finnish presidential election but received only 6.7% of the votes,[4] making it the biggest defeat the Social Democratic Party had ever received in Finnish presidential elections at the time.[5] Lipponen is currently the oldest living former prime minister of Finland.
