Appendix: Note on Military Expenditure, 1960-88

Statistics on 's military expenditure, as outlined in the following table, convey a slightly unrealistic picture of Finland's defence capabilities. Finland has consistently spent more money on defence than statistics reveal. For example, the appropriations of the border guard are not included in military budgets (since the border guard is under the Ministry of the Interior). Neither are major defence construction projects in central and northern Finland included in military budgets, as funds for these projects come from the budgets of other ministries. Furthermore, pensions are paid out of the budget of the Ministry of Social Affairs and conscripts are paid even nowadays only a few pounds per day. It has been estimated that if Finland paid its conscripts the same rate that is paid in Denmark, Finland would have to increase its defence budget by 25 per cent. The adding of the expenditures of the Border Guard would increase the military budget by another 10 per cent.

If one takes into account all military-related expenditure then the range is between 4.9% (in 1949) and 7.4% (in 1955). In the 1930's (excluding 1939) the figure had been between 20% and 25%.

The fact that Zhdanov, who had advocated the inclusion of Finland into the Soviet bloc, was rapidly losing his position in the Kremlin, may Notes to pp. 32-5 171

have contributed to the Soviet readiness to conclude a 'mild' treaty with Finland. The first signs of Zhdanov's fall from favour were detected in 1947. From the beginning of 1948 his public appearances became rare. He disappeared from the Soviet leadership in July 1948 and died in August 1948. See W. G. Hahn, Postwar Soveit Politics. The Fall ofZhdanov and the Defeat of Moderation 1946-1953, pp. 101-2. 29. To add to the Soviet uncertainty over Finnish reactions, the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Finnish Parliament deliberately leaked infor• mation to the Soviet representatives revealing that 'any negotiations for a FCMA Treaty were, from the Finnish view, 'very serious and our demands unconditional'.

In the interwar years the need for guarantees rose out of an increase in Italian, and later German, pressure against the small states involved. In 1948-49 the need for outside guarantees resulted from a perceived increase in Soviet pressure against the Nordic area. 77. See Izvestia, 15 February 1949.

4 The Soviet Withdrawal from the Porkkala Naval Base, 1956 1. Arguments to this effect were made frequently during the Finno-Soviet armistice negotiations. See T. Palm, Moskova 1944: Aseleponeuvottelut maaliskuussaja syyvskuussa 1944, Helsinki 1972, pp. 131-2. 2.

Palm, Moskova 1944, Helsinki 1972, pp. 131-2. 4. The size of a Soviet regiment at that time has been estimated at 2400 men, while a battalion is believed to have been 600 men, A. I. Radzdievskiji~s Taktika v boevyh primerah (Moscow 1976) cited in Eino KekaIiiinen, 'Niiin vuokraaja miehitti Porkkalaa', Helsingin Sanomat, 26 January 1986. 5.

6. Eino KeldiUlinen, 'Nllin vuokraaja miehitti Porklcalan', Helsingin Sanomat, 26 January 1986. The article is based on the author's thesis at the University of Helsinki. 7. George Maude has presented a similar theory in 'Porklcalan palautus oli osa laajempaa "liennytysoffensiivia", Helsingin Sanomat, 8 December 1985. See also Allison, Finland's Relations with the Soviet Union, p. 37. 8. Maude, 'Porklcalan palautus oli osa \aajempaa "liennytysoffensiivia"', Helsingin Sanomat, 8 December 1985. 9. However, in strictly legal terms Porkkala could have been seen as a non-neutral enclave on neutral Finnish territory. 10. According to J. Suomi, who has access to President Kekkonen's archives, Lebedev had informed Prime Minister Kekkonen about the Soviet offer even before contacting Paasikivi. See Suomenmaa, 17 January 1987. 11. The fact that the Soviet offer was considered as a barter by Finnish political leaders is revealed in Paasikivi's diary. See Paasikivi, J. K. Paasikiven ptiivtikirjat II, e.g. 19 August 1955, p.503; I September 1955, p. 505; 8 September 1955, p. 507. 12. The former head of the Political Department of the Finnish Ministry for Foreign Affairs, Max Jakobson, has presented the return of Porklcala in terms of a direct barter: a 20-year extension of the FCMA Treaty in exchange for Porklcala. Jakobson, Kuumalla linjalla, p. 87. 13. Dallin, Soviet Foreign Policy After Stalin, p. 272. 14. Paasikivi dropped these items from the agenda almost one by one as the negotiations approached. Sec: J.

It was Paasikivi who mentioned Finland's desire finally to become a member of the UN to Molotov. Molotov promised to keep the Finnish request in mind. Paasikivi, J. K. Paasikiven ptiiviikirjat II, p.51O. 22. The Nordic Council on its part decided not to discuss security policy issues in its meetings. 23. Paasikivi, J. K. Paasikiven piiiviikirjat II, p. 503 and pp.508-9. 24. The same argument is made in connection with the Soviet withdrawal from Austria in William B.

Osmo Apunen, Paasikivi-Kekkosen linja, Helsinki 1977, p. 99. 30. According to certain Finnish scholars this solution to the dilemma formed a model for subsequent Finnish diplomacy. See Jukka Tarkka and Allan Tiitta, /tseniiinen Suomi, Helsinki 1987, p. 207 and Max Jakobson, Veteen piirrettv viiva, pp. 39-40. 31. The concept of 'forward strategy' was introduced by the United States Secretary of State Dulles. Baker, Austria Between East and West, p.201. 32. See Baker, Austria Between East and West 1945-55, p. 201 and Wolfe, Soviet Power and Europe, p. 76. 33. The recognition of this fact by both superpowers has been seen as the beginning of European d~tente. See e.g. Konrad Ginther, 'Austria's Policy of Neutrality and the Soviet Union' in Ginsburgs and Rubinstein (eds), Soviet Foreign Policy toward Western Europe, New York 1978, p. 67. 34. Baker, Austria Between East and West, pp. 200-2. 35. See Medvedev and Medvedev, Khrushchev, The Years in Power, p.58. 36. Audrey E. Kurth argues that the Austrian State treaty was largely a product of unilateral actions by the Soviet Union. See A. E. Kurth, 'The Great Powers and the Struggle over Austria', D. Phil. thesis, University of Oxford, 1984. Other scholars have noted that the Austrian governrnent recognised the possibilities for a settlement already in January 1954, and began to launch initiatives of its own. See Hanspeter Neuhold, 'The Permanent Neutrality of Austria: A Status Similar to and Different from Sweden's "Not-alignment" in 80 Huldt (ed.), Neutrals in Europe: Austria, UI, Conference Papers 7, Stockholm 1987, p. 7. 37. See Hanspeter Neuhold, 'The Permanent Neutrality of Austria: A Status Similar to and Different from Sweden's 'Not-alignment' in Bo Huldt (ed.), Neutrals in Europe: Austria, p. 9. 38. Conrary to Stalin, Khrushchev declared repeatedly in the the 1950s and the early 1960s that any war originating in Europe would certainly escalate to a full scale nuclear war. Although he used strong rhetoric for its deterring effect, he consistently maintained Khrushchev believed that 'neither side would concede defeat before resorting to the use of all weapons, even the most devastating ones', Pravda, 8 March 1961, cited in Wolfe, Soviet Power and Europe, p. 211.

'The Austrian Federal Government will make a declaration in a fonn which will obligate Austria internationally to practice in perpetuity a neutrality of the type maintained by Switzerland.' See, for example, Baker, Austria Between East and West, p. 185. 43. The Austrian interpretation of this reference as a justification for armed neutrality was an outgrowth of the fear that the Soviet Union might wish to force Austria into closer co-operation with it.

Certain American military observers have paid attention to the name of the Finnish recoil-less rifle and to the symbolism it seems to evoke.

Much of this section is based on interviews with Lieutenant General Halmevaara, who was involved in all procurement negotiations with the Soviet Union, and with Lieutenant General Arimo, who was involved at some stages. 31.

See e.g Uusi Suomi, 31 Oct 1961. The Finnish newspapers featured a front-page story of the new Soviet nuclear explosion together with a story of the Soviet note to Finland. See e.g. Uusi Suomi and Helsingin Sanomat, 31 October 1961. 29. This argument is a continuous theme in R. Slusser, The Berlin Crisis of 1961. 30. Max Jakobson, who was the Head of the Political Department of the Finnish Foreign Ministry, holds this view. See, Jakobson, Veteenpiirretty viiva pp. 258-60, 278-9.

the time of the crisis by The New York Times: 'A Tum to the Military', 18 November 1961.

The security of Leningrad must also have come into Soviet calcu• lations, but by this time the more sensitive area was Kola.

The discussion was triggered off by Basil Liddel Hart's speech in Sweden in which he advocated such a zone.

The purchase of a new interceptor aircraft, the J-35 Draken approved by the government in the mid-1960s, was delayed several years. In 1966 there was 'a 70 per cent cut in planned defence allocations and drastic reductions in the procurement programme, with acquisitions delayed by about ten years.' The only parts of the Development Programme that were carried out in the latter part of the 1960s were the procurement of a number of Plessey radar systems from Great Britain, the building and installation of a long-range radar and air defence C31 (Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence) network, the construciton of a few corvettes, and the purchase of Soviet surface to surface missiles for the navy.

The new territorial organisation had certain similarities to plans advanced in the 1920s and 1930s by Generals Grundell and Airo. These regional mobilisation systems differed from the new system in one crucial aspect: they were designed only for mobilisation while the new system of territorial defence was designed for mobilisation and warfighting and was therefore accompanied by a strategy and tactics suitable for it. 23.

During the same period (1970-88) Finland's GNP increased from 45,743 MFIM to 435,550 MFlM. In real tenns the increase in military procurement 1970-88 was 250 per cent. 13. The United States had refused to let Sweden resell the Sidewinder missile to Finland in the beginning of the 1960s. 14. The only other preset goal for the Committee was, according to Lieutenant General Pajunen, that the final report should be less than 100 pages long: 'otherwise nobody will bother to read it'.

9 Towards Symmetric Defence, 1982-89 1. The debate was begun by the publication of Puolustuslinjat (Lines of Defence) by the this author in October 1988 and facilitated by the publication of Tomas Ries' Cold Will - the Defence of Finland a few months later. Pekka Visuri's Totaalisesta sodasta kriisinhallintaan (From Total War to Crisis Management), 1989, also dealt with questions of defence. 2. There were also tactical reasons for supporting Kekkonen. No party wanted to alienate the president and thus worsen its own position by announcing that it was against Kekkonen. 3. According to Ahti Karjalainen, Prime Minister and Foreign Minister under Kekkonen, Kekkonen had occasional memory lapses from the early 1970s onward. It seems clear that from 1978 onwards his health deteriorated so much that it seriously impaired his work. See Ahti Karjalainen and Jukka Tarkka, Presidentin ministeri, Helsinki 1989. 4. According to Koivisto's statistics, 93 per cent of the population considered Finland's foreign policy to be well handled, while 81 per cent thought that the FCMA Treaty made a positive contribution to Finland's security. 5.

The most detailed source on procurement programmes is Tomas Ries' Cold Will. Although the book contains a few errors it is by far the most accurate account of the materiel development of the Finnish Defence Forces. 17. Commander in Chief General Valtanen has repeatedly turned his attention to budget cuts. See for example Ruotuviiki 12/1989. 18.
