Alexander Stubb said that decisions on the location of the NATO headquarters were made on the basis of military interests, and not on the basis of regional politics.
Finland will host two NATO headquarters: the Northern European Army Headquarters and the alliance’s Forward Ground Forces Headquarters. The first is located in Mikkel, the second in Rovaniemi or Sodankylä. Yle reports this with reference to its own sources.
Finnish President Alexander Stubb said that decisions on the location of the NATO headquarters were made based on military interests, and not on the basis of regional politics. He added that no final decision has been made yet.
Last Monday, the defense ministers of Sweden and Finland announced that Sweden is ready to lead NATO’s forward ground forces, which will be stationed in Finland.
We previously reported that the headquarters of NATO ground forces will be based in Finland.
We remind you that the large-scale military exercise of NATO countries called Nordic Response 24 took place in the north of Finland, Sweden and Norway.
