Finland 's eastern border-crossing points were closed in November 2023 , following a rapid increase in the number of asylum seekers after Russia began allowing people without valid travel documents to cross.

Colonel Marko Saareks took charge of the Kainuu Border Guard , a unit responsible for security and management of a 406-kilometre section of Finland 's 1,289 kilometre-long eastern land border.

He believes the border crossings will still reopen someday, but not very soon.
