Finlanda împiedică vânzarea a şase imobile către străini din motive de securitate naţională

Finland's Ministry of Defense has blocked the sale of six properties to citizens from Russia, Montenegro, and Israel due to national security concerns. Minister Antti Hakkanen cited a law requiring special authorization for real estate transactions that could threaten national security. One property was blocked due to its location in Kotka, while others were denied because applicants failed to provide necessary documentation. The law, modified in 2025, targets buyers from non-EU and non-EEA countries. Finland has restricted property purchases by Russian citizens since the onset of the Ukraine conflict in February 2022.
