Finland and the United States agree on exchange and liaison officers
Published
The Ministry of Defence has authorised the Finnish Defence Forces to sign two agreements between Finland and the United States. The agreements concern the exchange of military personnel and liaison officers. Liaison officers serve as a link between the defence forces of both countries and help with the flow of information and cooperation.
The purpose of the agreements is to facilitate cooperation in the defence sector. Exchange programmes give Finnish officers the opportunity to work in the United States, and American officers can likewise serve in Finland. Such cooperation is important because Finland and the United States are continuously developing their defence cooperation.
The agreements are being made as general frameworks, so their details will be agreed separately later. The source does not say more precisely when the agreements will be signed or when they will begin to apply in practice.
This decision shows that defence cooperation between Finland and the United States is continuing and deepening. More information on the content of the agreements is expected once they have been signed.
