Ambassadors have a special place in the global ecosystem. Once a year, they clean their nests and gather as a herd back to their birthplace in Finland.
At the public's request, the ambassadors' meeting’s marketing video has now English subtitles. #SLSK2024

It was a pleasure to meet Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen when we brought British journalists to Mariehamn and Helsinki, to learn about Finnish foreign policy, NATO membership, and why Åland may be the happiest corner in the country. Warm thanks for the meeting, @elinavaltonen !
