SOVIET-FINNISH co-- operation has a significance far beyond their bilateral rela- tions, said the Soviet Prime Minister, Nikolai Tikhonov, when he addressed a celebra- tion meeting marking the star- ting up of the first stage of the Kostomuksha ore-dressing works in Karelia. | This big industrial enterprise is being built jointly by the USSR and Finland and Presi- dent Mauno Koivisto and other Finnish state and political leaders attended the opening. The high level of Soviet- Finnish co-operation was to- day taken for granted but, Tikhonov recalled, when their first trade agreement was sign- ed 35 years ago, that trade amounted to a mere 100 million roubles. It had now grown to 50 times that level — a ‘‘dynamic progress of our friendly rela- tions.”’ The Premier stressed that the construction of Kostomuk- sha was a practical implemen- tation of the ideas of co-opera- tion and detente recorded in: the Helsinki Final Act. Kostomuksha was a ‘“‘most convincing example of the fruitfulness of goodneighbour- ly relations and trust existing between our two countries,”’ said President Koivisto. Everyone could see the positive result of the Finnish- Soviet treaty, which had created a positive, unprejudic- ed atmosphere in which trade and economic co-operation had sprouted and grown. The importance of the pro- ject was not confined to trade but stimulated economic ac- tivity and provided jobs for thousands of Finns. “anstruction of the second and third stages of the project were in full swing and would continue for a long time.’ The co-operation was mutual. In Finland, the Presi- dent noted, a big steel works and two nuclear power sta- tions were being built in co- operation with the Soviet Union. NEW PROJECTS “I am confident that new projects will be started in the near future,’’ he added.

Tikhonov recalled that the emergence of the idea of a nuclear-free zone on northern Europe was closely associated with Finland. : “Qur position is well known,”’ he said, ‘‘we stand for formalising the idea in a specific agreement.” The Soviet Premier noted that his visit coincided with two major linked anniver- Saries, the 60th anniversary of the formation of the USSR and the 65th anniversary of Finland’s independence. He recalled that it was the decree immediately independence, that had made the emergence of an indepen- dent Finnish state possible. **The road we have travelled since then,”’ he said, “‘has not been simple and smooth. **So what we have achieved so far is a most valuable com- mon asset which our countries and peoples are resolved to protect and replenish.’’ Welcoming the Soviet Premier, President an ‘exemplary way,’’ and making unceasing efforts to develop both sides were The winning number for $100,- 000 was 032173.

Sudbury The President recalled that his visit to Moscow ‘earlier this year had provided an oppor- tunity to «consider widely Finnish-Soviet political rela- tions, and ‘‘to note the lack of | problems in them’’. As for trade and economic relations, Finland was the se- cond biggest western trade partner of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet _Union was Finland’s major trade partner. At talks between the Soviet Premier and the Finnish Presi- dent, both sides reaffirmed their conviction that the Paasikivi-Kekkonen line in Finnish foreign policy,. based on their treaty, was a guarantee of the steady development of their friend- ship and co-operation. A joint communique stress- ed the need to consolidate the process of detente, to end the build-up of increasingly destructive weapons, par- ticularly nuclear weapons, and achieve general and complete disarmament under strict in- ternational control. The Soviet unilateral pledge not to be the first to use nuclear weapons was a convin- cing example of concern for peace and the striving to pre- vent nuclear catastrophe. Both sides urged earliest agreement at the Geneva and Vienna talks on the basis of parity and equal security, and urgently called for a complete ban on nuclear weapons tests. The Soviet Union and Finland attach great significance to consolidating the role of UNO as.an in- strument , for maintaining peace and security and developing peaceful co- operation among states. The organisations effec- tiveness should be strengthen- ed in strict compliance with its Charter. Both sides firmly came out for continuing the process begun at Helsinki, whose Final Act continues to serve as a good foundation for strengthening detente, mutual operation.
