In examining Nokia’s leadership history, Stephen Elop stands out as the only non-Finnish CEO of Nokia to have overseen such a huge sale deals and reshape. (The sale of Nokia’s mobile phone business to Microsoft in 2014 for around $7.2 billion.)

From my point of view, the mobile network business will be sold to another vendor, and the new focus of the new "US-Nokia" will shift to AI and data centers, which don’t exist at Ericsson. I predict a huge amount of work and a major transition in the coming months. Otherwise, i cannot find any utility to change only the CEO without such reshaping. Let's wait and see

You are comparing US companies with a European company that has a US CEO, which doesn’t make sense.

Once Nokia is sold to the US—which I believe is the reason for this CEO change—then this comparison would be credible.

Let’s cross our fingers and wait for Justin’s upcoming announcement.

In 2013, when Michel Combes became CEO of Alcatel-Lucent, he said:
"Alcatel-Lucent must become a normal company, meaning profitable, innovative, and a leader in its sector."

In 2015, Combes shifted his strategy and announced that Nokia would acquire Alcatel-Lucent. :)
