Finland tightens entry rules for Russians and stops all tourist travel.

This was announced by the Finnish Minister of Foreign Affairs, Pekka Haavisto, according to Yle.

– We have noticed that the mobilization has increased Finland's role as a transit country, which is damaging Finland's international relations, says the Minister of Foreign Affairs at a press conference on Friday evening. 

The country has already tightened its visa policy. The new tightening will apply to anyone who does not have a special reason to enter Finland, such as family.
