Finland: Military Alliances
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to strengthen military and defence cooperation with Finland.
Answered by Al Carns
The defence relationship between the UK and Finland is strong and growing. We cooperate closely bilaterally, in NATO and through the Joint Expeditionary Force. The UK is supporting the development of NATO's Forward Land Forces in Finland through the deployment of three Liaison Officers. In September and October, UK and Finnish personnel took part in TARASSIS, the JEF's largest exercise activity to date.
