Current affairs

Minister for European Affairs and Foreign Trade Alexander Stubb will make a Team Finland trip to New Zealand and Australia between 28 November and 3 December. He will be accompanied by a business delegation, consisting of representatives of the mining industry, the machine and construction industry, information technology, the forwarding business, health and well-being services, and the food industry. The delegation was assembled by Finpro.

The Ministry for Foreign Affairs is still determining the situation of Finns in New Zealand following the devastating earthquake. It is known at the Ministry that about 90 Finns are in New Zealand, and contact has been made with nearly all of them. The Ministry is continuing its efforts to reach the Finns with whom contact has not been made yet.
