Discussions with the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Industry focused on deepening cooperation between Finland and Ukraine were also held. 

The minister also visited defence industry enterprises and research centres.

Häkkänen stated that he had been given a detailed overview of the situation in Ukraine and Russia’s actions, noting that Russia was continuing its full-scale offensive with support from its allies. He emphasised that strengthening Ukraine’s position was crucial as peace negotiations began, reiterating Finland’s long-term commitment to supporting Ukraine and working towards a lasting and just peace.

Finland is expanding defence cooperation with Ukraine, with a new internal funding programme playing a key role.
