PROGRESSIVE and anti-war sectors in Finland continue to protest against the country’s bid for Nato membership.
On June 4 and 5, activists from various groups including Stop Nato, Communist Youth Association (Kommunistinuoret), Communist Youth (KTP), Tampere Marxist Study Circle and Pirkanmaa Peace Defenders’ Committee participated in demonstrations in Helsinki and Tampere denouncing the government’s move to join Nato.
