[ad_1]
The head of the Vartius checkpoint on the Finnish-Russian border, Jouko Kinnunen, said that construction of barriers has begun at the border point. The border forces are being assisted in this by the military, reports the Yle portal with reference to Kinnunen.
Earlier, the Finnish Border Guard cited the reason for the closure of the Vartius checkpoint as overcrowding at the checkpoint.
Prior to this, Finland decided to close four checkpoints, Vaalimaa/Torfyanovka, Imatra/Svetogorsk, Niirala/Värtsilä and Nuijamaa/Brusnichnoe.
