چکیده
Finland’s interest in the EU’s policies towards the East has been strongly dominated by the Northern Dimension (ND). The ND still continues to hold a central place in the Finnish debate, and Finland is determined to continue the ND in future, with a focus on north-west Russia and pragmatic cooperation in a variety of fields including the environment, transport and health and social issues. The future of the ND needs to be seen as inherently linked to both EU policy towards Russia and the ENP. So far, the new Eastern neighbours and the ENP have been taken on board in the Finnish debate not so much as issues that would be important for Finland per se, but they have been mostly addressed from the perspective of their implications for the ND. However, Finland’s interest towards the EU’s new Eastern neighbours, in particular Ukraine, is increasing. The main reason why Finland should indeed be more interested in Ukraine’s development is the huge impact that the direction of Ukraine has on Russia. Finland and Poland will most probably continue to pursue their specific interests in the East: it is natural for Finland to maintain a leading role with regard to north-west Russia, and for Poland towards Ukraine, Moldova and Belarus. However, the two countries should support each other’s specific interests and aims. This is more than a bargain in order to receive support for one’s own activities, since their basic interests are the same: a stable and secure neighbourhood, the promotion of European values in the neighbouring countries, functioning relations with Russia, a more coherent EU policy towards Russia, and the EU’s interest in and commitment (including funding) to a variety of countries and issues in the Eastern neighbourhood.
