A very Finnish experience: You don't really tend to see the flag much, so when there's a bunch of flags up flagpoles when you look out, you have to wonder if it's some national holiday you forgot about, and when you check, it turns out to be a national day of nature appreciation, The Day of Finnish Nature or Finnish Nature's Day loosely translated. Bilberries are mentioned.
Sure, I guess. Hooray Finnish nature! 🫐🇫🇮

#UK'S Keir #Starmer:

"We're talking about security, not just of #Ukraine, we're talking about the security of #Europe & the #UnitedKingdom as well, which is why this is such an important issue."

#Finland’s Alexander #Stubb:

"The fact that we're around this table today is very much symbolic, in the sense that it's Team Europe & Team United States helping Ukraine."
