Finland Has 2 Core Network Corridors Crossing Its Country FINLAND: Finland has 2 Core Network Corridors crossing its country: The North Sea-Baltic Corridor stretches from the North Sea ports Antwerp, Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Bremen and Hamburg through Poland to the Belarus border and to the Baltic countries' ports Klaipeda, Ventspils, Riga and Tallinn as well as to Helsinki. It covers rail, road, airports, ports, RRT's, inland waterway as the "Mittelland Kanal" and "Motorway of the Sea" links to Finland. The key project is "Rail Baltic(a)", a UIC standard gauge railway between north-eastern Poland, Kaunas, Riga and Tallinn. The Scandinavian-Mediterranean Corridor extends from the Finnish-Russian border and the Finnish ports of HaminaKotka, Helsinki and Turku-Naantali via a "Motorway of the Sea" to Stockholm and with a branch from Oslo, through southern Sweden, Denmark, Germany, where the ports of Bremen, Hamburg and Rostock are connected, western Austria to the Italian ports La Spezia, Livorno, Ancona, Bari, Taranto, Naples and Palermo and "Motorway of the Sea" links to Malta. It comprises rail, road, airports, ports, RRT's and "Motorway of the Sea" sections. The key projects are Fehmarnbelt fixed link and Brenner base tunnel. The corridors and key projects which contribute to completing them are set out on the following page. What are the key benefits? The multimodal TEN-T Core Network with the Core Network Corridors will strongly contribute to European cohesion and strengthen the internal market. A more competitive economy will produce higher employment. Enhanced multimodality on a better rail, inland waterways and maritime infrastructure within the multimodal TEN-T, as well as innovative technologies in the field of transport, will induce modal shift, reduce congestion on road, cut emissions of greenhouse and polluting gases and boost transport safety and security. The new infrastructure policy in Europe Transport is vital to the European economy, without good connections Europe will not grow or prosper. The new European infrastructure policy will put in place a powerful European transport network across 28 Member States, connected to neighbouring countries and the rest of the world, to promote growth and competitiveness. It will connect East with West and replace today's transport patchwork with a network which is genuinely European. The new policy triples EU financing to 26 € billion for transport in the period 2014 – 2020, at the same time it refocuses transport financing on a tightly defined core network. The core network will form the backbone for transportation in Europe's Single Market. By 2030, it will remove bottlenecks, upgrade infrastructure and streamline cross border transport operations for passengers and businesses throughout the EU. Its implementation will be pushed ahead by the setting up of 9 major transport corridors that will bring together Member States and stakeholders and will allow to concentrate tight resources and to achieve results. The new TEN-T core network will be supported by a comprehensive network of routes, feeding into the core network at regional and national level. The aim is to ensure that progressively, throughout the entire EU, the TEN-T will contribute to enhancing internal market, strengthening territorial, economic and social cohesion and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Taken as a whole, the new transport network will deliver: - safer and less congested travel - smoother and quicker journeys - as well as less impact on the climate. Projects that could receive financing from the "Connecting Europe Facility" (CEF): Taking into account the long-distance benefits of improvements in a corridor, the following tables comprise, apart from projects in the country concerned, also measures in corridor sections beyond its borders.

Käytävään sisältyy rautateitä, maanteitä, lentoasemia, satamia, rautatie-/ maantieterminaaleja ja sisävesiliikennettä, koska Mittelland Kanal -kanaalilla ja merten moottoritiellä on yhteys Suomeen. Keskeinen hanke on Rail Baltic(a), joka on UIC-standardiraideleveyden rata Koillis-Puolan, Kaunasin, Riikan ja Tallinnan välillä. Skandinavia–Välimeri-käytävä ulottuu Suomen ja Venäjän rajalta ja Suomen satamista (Hamina/Kotka, Helsinki ja Turku/Naantali) merten moottoritietä pitkin Tukholmaan ja haarautuu Oslosta Etelä-Ruotsin kautta Tanskaan ja Saksaan, jossa siihen yhdistyvät Bremenin, Hampurin ja Rostockin satamat, läntisestä Itävallasta Italian satamiin (La Spezia, Livorno, Ancona, Bari, Taranto, Napoli ja Palermo) ja merten moottoritietä pitkin Maltalle. Siihen sisältyy rautateitä, maanteitä, lentoasemia, satamia, rautatie-/maantieterminaaleja sekä merten moottoriteitä. Keskeisiä hankkeita ovat Fehmarnin salmen kiinteä yhteys ja Brennerin tunneli.

  • The Autonomy of Åland: a Reflexion of International and Constitutional Law
    THE AUTONOMY OF ÅLAND: A REFLEXION OF INTERNATIONAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL LAW By Christer Janson, Chief Legislative Officer, Åland Provincial Government 1. The historical background of the autonomy of lland ' . _ , Aland has had af Swedish population at least since the sixth century A.D. For this reason Aland, when the Kingdom of Sweden was formed, from the very beginning was a part of that country. The population of the Finnish mainland however was probably already at that time of Finnish origin. Only after the Swedish conquest of Finland during the thirteenth century Swedes started to settle in the coastal regions of .Finland. When the Swedish domination in Finland had been consolidated and Finland been made a part of the Kingdom of Sweden Aland was in some administrative, judicial and ecclesiastical respect made a part of the Abo (Turku) region. The reasons for this were purely practical and had no constitutional significance since Finland was an integrated part of the Kingdom of Sweden. In the seventeenth century Sweden was a superpower in the Baltic region. During the eighteenth century its significance diminished. Eventually Finland and Aland were lost to Russia through the peace treaty of Fredrikshamn (Hamina) in 1809. During the Crimean War 1853-56 the Russian fortress Bomarsund in Aland was destroyed by English and French fleets. At the peace negotiations Sweden who had stayed neutral during the war claimed Aland back to Sweden. However, Russia refused to give up Aland. On the other hand Russia was forced to commit itself not to build any fortifications in Aland (the so-called Aland Islands Servitude).

  • From Political to National, Regional and Local
    FROM POLITICAL TO NATIONAL, REGIONAL AND LOCAL From Political to National, Regional and Local The Newspaper Structure in Finland RAIMO SALOKANGAS here was no “Finnish” central administration or state as the Finnish prov- Tinces were subordinated to the Swedish crown in the 12th century. There was also Swedish colonisation in areas later to be known as Finland. The Turku archi- pelago between the Åland Islands and the Finnish mainland was populated by Swedes in the 12th century, and during the 13th and 14th centuries they colonised even certain coastal areas in Southern and Western Finland. As the Finnish prov- inces were incorporated into the Kingdom of Sweden, the Finns adopted the western version of Christian confession. Under Sweden, Swedish became the language of administration and educa- tion even in Finland. In 1640 the Crown established a university in Turku to pro- vide the eastern part of the kingdom with clergymen and administrators. When a son of a Finnish peasant went to school and university he adopted Swedish as his other language, and this way the families of educated Finns got “swedicized”. Finnish remained the language of the great majority of the peasantry. This was to be reflected even in the press structure. As part of an agreement between the emperors Napoleon of France and Alex- ander of Russia, Sweden lost Finland to Russia in 1809. Finland got the status of a Grand Duchy, and during the 19th century its autonomy was deliberately consti- tuted and strengthened by its administrative, political and cultural elite. For this end it was essential that Finland was allowed to keep the Swedish constitutions.

During my visits in Russia to research in the former Soviet archives it was not possible to see the origi- nal plans for operations. It was pointed out to me that the "ground level vegetation" is still the same in the border areas of Russia and Finland. This, of course, was a friendly way of saying to me that the legislation still forbids of giving those materials for researchers.
