Finland Blocks 11 Non-EU Property Deals Over Security Concerns
Defence Minister Antti Häkkänen vetoed 11 real-estate purchases by non-EU nationals on 27 October, citing hybrid-threat and national-security concerns. The blocked properties are scattered across key coastal and inland regions. The move signals that Finland will maintain strict scrutiny of foreign land deals, requiring multinationals and expatriates to undertake thorough security reviews before purchasing Finnish real estate.
