Finland concerned about suspicious Russian activity
What is important to understand is that satellite images recently published by the New York Times confirm the expansion of Russian military infrastructure near the border with Finland.
Russia is building additional infrastructure so that after the war (against Ukraine — ed.) it will be able to transfer more troops, representatives of the Finnish Armed Forces told reporters.
Finnish Defense Minister Antti Häkkinen made a separate statement on this matter.
"We have excellent opportunities to monitor Russia's actions. As a member of the Alliance, Finland has a strong security position," he stressed.
Antti Häkkinen also pointed out that his country has a "reliable national defense" based on universal military conscription and large reserve forces.
Our entire society has invested significantly in preparing for various types of disruptions and crises, the Finnish Defense Minister added.
