The needs are quite significant, says Minister of Defence Antti Häkkänen in the Economic Morning of Kauppalehti. The report of the parliamentary working group on the development and resource needs of Finland's national defence for the 2030s talks about doubling annual defence expenditure from the current level. The report was handed over to Minister of Defence Antti Häkkänen (Kok) on Tuesday.
