Summary

Headline: Russia still a threat to Finland, Supo says

Short Summary: Finland's intel agency: Russia using migrants at border as pressure, but not embedding spies.

Description

Finland's Security and Intelligence Service (Supo) states that Russia remains a threat to Finland and is using the tactic of funnelling people to the eastern border as a means of coercion and pressure. This comes as part of broader hybrid operations from Russia, but Supo says it does not see evidence that Russia is infiltrating spies amid the flow of migrants.

Evidence

Quotes

Funnelling people to the eastern border is Russia's way of bullying Finland, according to the Finnish Security and Intelligence Service.

Supo said it did not believe that Russia was infiltrating spies into Finland along with migrants seeking to enter the country.

Hybrid operations targeting Finland and other Western countries are ongoing, although their forms and intensity may vary.
