Actually, because of the large stream of migrants, Finland decided to close all the border crossing points with Russia, except for one-Rai-Joseepi. It is reported that in November, more than 600 people from Russia arrived in Finland, who had no relevant travel documents to the European Union. Against the background of this situation, journalists asked the Prime Minister of Norway whether the kingdom was ready to follow the example of Finland and to close a single checkpoint with Russia.
Jonas Gar Star did not deny this opportunity and said "if needed. " In addition, the Prime Minister added that the authorities will monitor the situation in Finland and Estonia, who recently stated migration pressure from the Russian Federation. On November 22, Finland Prime Minister Petter ORPO said that the country was closing all border crossing points with Russia except one. The reason for this decision was the influx of migrants from Russia.
In particular, refugees from different countries arrive from the Russian Federation. According to the Minister of Foreign Affairs Elina Valtonen, they have evidence that migrants are delivered to the border by the Border Service of the Russian Federation. Earlier, namely on November 16, the refugees were stated in the Estonia government. They also accused Russia of helping migrants to reach the border.
According to Minister of Internal Affairs Lauri Laurenet, persons who are not entitled to the Schengen area are headed to the border points. According to him, the Russian Federation should not miss people without appropriate documents to the EU, but they do so. At the same time, Lauri Lyanemet stated that due to this situation, the country could close some checkpoints with Russia.
It should be noted that in April this year, the media wrote that because of the problems of migration and for security purposes, Finland builds a fence on the border with Russia. The work is planned by the end of 2026, and the fence will extend about 200 km. On November 20, Russia declared a protest to Finnish Avlov because of the decision to close the checkpoints. According to them, this violated the rights of Russian citizens.
Meanwhile, the Kremlin said that "nothing but deep pity is not causing" and cannot affect the situation, because there is no dialogue between Russia and Finland. A few days later, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation made a new statement that stated that such a decision to close the checkpoints is a transfer of responsibility to Russia, and Finland "awkwardly justified, warming up Russophobic sentiment.
" The Russian media also report that the decision of the Finnish government to close the border in the Murmansk region, where the only open check point remains, introduced a mode of increased readiness. In particular, the governor of the region is afraid of increasing the number of migrants in the region. In addition, he said that at another checkpoint of the checkpoint "Sala", which remains open, there is already an influx of migrants.
