Finland seeking one million land mines as it eyes Russian threat
Finland plans to purchase one million landmines to strengthen security along its 1,340-kilometer border with Russia. The country aims to sign a contract by the end of 2027 and begin production in its own facilities by 2028. Simultaneously, Helsinki has urged the European Union to suspend tourist visas for Russian citizens for the duration of the war in Ukraine. These initiatives underscore the security concerns in Europe regarding Russia, set against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine.
