Finland looks to Australia in hunt for new trade partners

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has prompted neighbouring countries to seek new partners, Finland’s trade minister says, as he and Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin embark on a historic trade mission to Australia.

Ms Marin and Mr Skinnari are leading a business delegation, which has also travelled to New Zealand, with senior executives from communications equipment producer Nokia and elevator manufacturer Kone Corporation among the companies represented. Mr Skinnari said Russia’s attack on Ukraine had changed a lot of thinking in Europe. Finland, which borders Russia,“Of course Finnish people are concerned, but we are not afraid. We have one of the strongest armies in Europe,” he said.

Ms Trevelyan said AUKUS would create a “huge new ecosystem” in Australia for the building, sustainment and regulation of nuclear submarines.

Certainly a better story than the RIO crap yesterday.

Rollmops to rule!

Oh really, I thought from the press conference I saw a snippet of that Sanna was here to talk to a woman of her own age about dancing and other girl talk.

the country where I want to be

Awesome

Is she planning a Finland style debauchery here?

Lol. Finland.

Hope our trade minister asks about Finland’s nuclear energy program that is helping them reduce emissions much quicker than most of Europe

Finland is a fantastic country. From Jean Sibelius and Finlandia to lakes islands and Moomins! It is the land of the Midnight sun! We equally have much to offer from technology to engineering capability and culture. A wonderful world partner.

tervetuloa Australiaan
