Suomi on osana Euroopan unionia jo aiemmin todennut, että Nicolás Maduron hallinto on vailla legitimiteettiä. EU on johdonmukaisesti tukenut maan rauhanomaista, demokraattista kehitystä.
Kaikilla valtioilla on kuitenkin vastuu kunnioittaa ja toimia kansainvälisen oikeuden mukaisesti. Tämä periaate on Suomen ulkopolitiikan kulmakivi.
Ulkoministeriö seuraa Venezuelan tilanteen kehittymistä tarkasti yhteistyössä kumppanimaiden ja liittolaisten kanssa.
Finland, as part of the European Union, has previously stated that Nicolás Maduro’s government lacks legitimacy. The EU has consistently supported the country’s peaceful, democratic development.
All states have a responsibility to respect and act in accordance with international law. This principle is a cornerstone of Finland’s foreign policy.
The Ministry for Foreign Affairs is closely monitoring developments in Venezuela in cooperation with partners and allies.
Positiivisia uutisia meriteollisuudelle, taloudelle ja työllisyydelle. Jäänmurtajayhteistyö Suomen ja USAn välillä etenee, kun allekirjoitamme yhteisymmärryspöytäkirjan, joka luo pohjan kaupallisille sopimuksille. Samalla 🇫🇮🇺🇸 suhde syvenee.
The US administration has negotiated directly with companies.
I’m proud that Finnish arctic expertise is appreciated and trusted. The cooperation benefits both countries, Finland and the United States.
The deal would not have been possible without President Trump. 2/2
Looking forward to visiting the White House today
with PM Orpo. I will sign a Memorandum of Understanding on icebreaker cooperation together with @POTUS.
The MOU lays the foundation for commercial agreements between the United States Coast Guard and Finnish companies. 1/2
Grateful to our Nordic allies and Canada for their strong joint statement. Clear stance on the need to end the killing and achieve lasting peace. Clear call for the return of Ukrainian children. Clear position on further pressure on the aggressor and strengthening for Ukraine.
Thank you, friends @elinavaltonen@larsloekke@thorgkatrin@EspenBarthEide@MariaStenergard@AnitaAnandMP 🤝
In an increasingly divided world, it is more important than ever that Canada is working with allies to secure the Arctic.
Today I joined the Nordic 5 to discuss how we can work together to improve transatlantic security, strengthen the multilateral system and support Ukraine.
The Ministers for Foreign Affairs of Finland and Canada agreed on a strategic partnership on foreign and security policy. Building on the close alignment of values and interests, Finland and Canada will deepen their cooperation on range of issues.

Canada is a key, arctic ally for Finland.
I had a call with PM @MarkJCarney. We talked about strengthening economic and security cooperation between our nations.
Together, we will continue steadfast support to Ukraine and work towards increasing pressure on Russia to achieve an unconditional, full ceasefire.
