The Finnish Immigration Service is planning a new detention center near the country’s largest prison, located between the German Military Cemetery and the Guide Dog School. The center will accommodate foreign individuals if it can be assumed that they are hiding or attempting to evade decisions affecting them or the enforcement of their deportation.
This is one indication that Finland’s immigration policy is being shifted from allowing all kinds of entry to one that serves the needs of the country. In practice, this means stricter adherence to the conditions for humanitarian protection and improving the prerequisites for labor-based immigration. This approach aims to maximize the benefits of immigration while minimizing its adverse effects.
The need to change immigration policy has become apparent in Finland following Sweden’s humanitarian immigration policy, which has been a complete failure. Reports of large-scale grooming gangs targeting British girls from the UK have further underscored the issue.
As a result of the changes currently underway, Finland hopes to attract more educated and work-motivated immigrants from traditional Western countries, India, Vietnam, Brazil, and the Philippines. From the latter, Finland has already received a significant number of diligent workers to address labor shortages in the country’s public healthcare system.
