Finnish Parliament Approved Defense Cooperation Agreement with U.S.

Yesterday Finland completed its transition from neutrality to becoming a vassal state of the Anglo-American empire. The Finnish Parliament unanimously approved the Defense Cooperation Agreement (DCA) between Finland and the United States on July 1, reported Yle. Under the agreement, Finland will open 15 of its military bases for potential use by U.S. forces, and will also allow the U.S. to bring defense equipment, supplies, materials, and soldiers to Finland. In addition, the agreement will see the creation of certain military zones, which will include facilities to which only U.S. personnel will have access.

“Unanimous” in this case apparently doesn’t mean that there was no opposition, but rather that the opposition was so cowed, it didn’t bother to fight. MP Anna Kontula (Left) had submitted a proposal calling on MPs to reject the agreement, but her motion did not receive any backing, says Yle. Therefore, Parliament did not vote on the agreement but approved it “unanimously.”
