HELSINKI (Reuters) – Finland will host a new land command unit of the NATO military alliance, Minister of Defence Antti Hakkanen told reporters on Friday following a meeting of the alliance in Brussels.
After decades of military non-alignment, Finland joined NATO last year in response to neighbouring Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
“I’m pleased to state that today all NATO member states have given their political consent to Finland’s key goals in its NATO integration,” Hakkanen said.
“Finland will host a NATO command and there will be land force presence in Finland,” he added.
