[Elina Valtonen @elinavaltonen]

A tragic shooting in Kraków has taken innocent lives and shaken us all.

My heartfelt condolences go to the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives, and I wish a swift and full recovery to all those injured.

Finland stands firmly with Poland and the Polish people at this difficult time. @sikorskiradek 🇫🇮🇵🇱

Happy Pride!

Human Rights are universal and belong to all people everywhere. Supporting the rights of sexual and gender minorities are among the priorities of Finland's human rights policy.

Finland condemns the Russian drone attack hitting an apartment building in Romania. Russia is crossing another line in its war of aggression against Ukraine.

Finland stands with its ally Romania and continues to support Ukraine to defend itself. The situation is being discussed within the Alliance.

[MFA Finland 🇫🇮 @Ulkoministerio]

Finland has today summoned Russia’s ambassador. We strongly condemn Russia’s illegal threats & brutal attacks against civilians in Ukraine and its intimidation campaign urging European countries’ embassy staff to leave Kyiv. 
Russia will not dictate Europe’s presence in Ukraine.

Finland, together with our close partners, today joined a joint statement regarding the situation in the Persian Gulf and, in particular, the Strait of Hormuz.

The statement condemns Iran’s recent attacks on commercial vessels and attempts to disrupt commercial shipping.

The statement also calls on all countries to respect international law and uphold the principles of international security.

The countries participating in the statement express their readiness to contribute to appropriate efforts to ensure safe passage through the Strait.

For Finland, security of supply is the cornerstone of national resilience.

Finland has long relied on strong preparedness. Our society must function during disruptions — from geopolitical tensions and hybrid threats to supply chain shocks and energy crises.

The Finnish Comprehensive Security model is unique. Its core is formed by close cooperation between the public sector, private companies, and citizens.

The National Emergency Supply Agency is a key player in ensuring the security of supply in Finland. I visited one of their storage sites today.

[Alexander Stubb @alexstubb]

Finland is the Happiest country in the World for the 9th year running. We also climbed up the world brand index from 7th to 5th.

I am often asked why we do well in these rankings.

I do not think there is a magic potion, but it helps to have a society which strives towards freedom, equality and justice.

The basis of it all is a welfare society, a robust education system, a sense of security and a close attachment to nature.

There is no such thing as a perfectly happy society, but providing some building blocks that give us a chance to live a meaningful life, to help others, will nudge us in the right direction during the journey of life.
