President Sauli Niinistö on Tuesday said that the enhanced cooperation between Finland and Sweden would not hamper relations with Estonia.
 
The president, who started a two-day visit to Estonia on Tuesday said diplomacy is not a zero sum game but rather involves working in different directions.
 
Replying to a question from journalists whether close defence cooperation between Finland and Sweden meant that Finland would be turning its back on Estonia, the Finnish President assured that this would not be happening.
 
The First Lady Jenni Haukio and Minister of Local Government and Public Reforms Anu Ve-hviläinen are, among others, in the Finnish delegation led by the President during the visit to Es-tonia.
