Finland considers establishing an economic special zone at the border with Russia
"Must be brave to try new things": Finland considers establishing an economic special zone at the Russian-Finnish border. According to the Finnish Broadcasting Company, Prime Minister Petri Kurz said that the country is considering setting up a special economic zone near the city of Imatra, which is on the Russian-Finnish border.
He pointed out that due to the severe economic situation in southeastern Finland, "we must be ready to try new methods." "Establishing a special economic zone may become one of the feasible solutions."
Kurz also emphasized that merely setting up the special zone "cannot solve all problems." He said he would study specific measures to ensure the effective operation of the special zone.
Previously, Professor Tuomas Malinen from the University of Helsinki had urgently called for the reopening of the Russian-Finnish border to save the economy.
On December 14, Finland will hold a series of car parades to support the opening of the Russian-Finnish border.
