Russia will take into account the possibility of nuclear weapons in Finland during military planning. This was announced on April 25 at the Russian Embassy in Helsinki.

"Even the theoretical possibility of nuclear weapons appearing on Finnish territory will be taken into account in Russian military planning. We hope that Helsinki is aware of this," the diplomatic mission told RIA Novosti.

It is noted that the amendments that the Finnish authorities propose to submit to parliament are regarded as removing the factors that deter the country from importing nuclear weapons at any time.

On April 23, the Finnish Ministry of Defense announced that the Finnish government had submitted to parliament a proposal to allow the import and storage of nuclear weapons for the purpose of defending the country within the framework of cooperation with NATO. At the same time, the acquisition, production, development and research of nuclear weapons in the country will be prohibited.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on the same day that the Finnish authorities' intention to allow the import of nuclear weapons into the country was a "concentrated confrontation."
