A documentary revealing the background and challenges of Finland's full accession to NATO.
Overnight, this seismic shift in European security policy has added nearly 1400 kilometres of new frontline between NATO and an increasingly belligerent Russia.

The programme was made before Finland's full accession and begins with NATO’s only existing Arctic border with Russia in the far North of Norway. It then examines Finland’s troubled history with Russia, and how the invasion of Ukraine motivated the country to abandon its much vaunted neutrality.

The report then reveals the collaborations that have designed to ensure the smooth interoperability of NATO and the Finnish Defence Forces. The role of the UK led Joint Expeditionary Force, a quasi “NATO in waiting”, is documented along with the issues of border security under EU sanctions.

Expert analysis is provided by members of the Finnish Parliament and the Finnish Institute for Foreign Affairs. Further contributions come from members of the Finnish Defence Force, the British Army and US forces training together in Finland.
