    'This may be just the beginning': the guards at Finland’s closed Russian border
    As remote Arctic crossing points are shut, officers say they plan to stick to the job in the glare of a geopolitical spotlight.

    Standing inside the border station at Raja-Jooseppi - with leather gloves tucked into his fleece-lined hat on the table in front of him and snow falling in the darkness outside - Lt Col Ville Ahtiainen paused to reflect on the geopolitical drama that has descended on this remote part of the Arctic.

    The deputy commander of the Lapland Border Guard. "I hope this is over and we can back get to normal life, but we will see."

    Little more than an hour before, the final vehicles had been allowed to cross Finland's last open land border crossing with Russia before the entire 830-mile (1,340km) frontier closed for at least two weeks.

    All nine Finland-Russia crossing points will now be closed until at least 13 December, with people seeking asylum in Finland directed instead to airports and ports.

    'This may be just the beginning': the guards at Finland’s closed Russian border
    As remote Arctic crossing points are shut, officers say they plan to stick to the job in the glare of a geopolitical spotlight.

    Standing inside the border station at Raja-Jooseppi - with leather gloves tucked into his fleece-lined hat on the table in front of him and snow falling in the darkness outside - Lt Col Ville Ahtiainen paused to reflect on the geopolitical drama that has descended on this remote part of the Arctic.

    The deputy commander of the Lapland Border Guard. "I hope this is over and we can back get to normal life, but we will see."

    Little more than an hour before, the final vehicles had been allowed to cross Finland's last open land border crossing with Russia before the entire 830-mile (1,340km) frontier closed for at least two weeks.

    All nine Finland-Russia crossing points will now be closed until at least 13 December, with people seeking asylum in Finland directed instead to airports and ports.
