”Kustannus-hyötyanalyysin perusteella satamatunnelin hyödyt ovat noin 40–50 milj. € ja [kustannukset] noin 400 milj. €. Sekä vaihtoehdon A että D nettohyödyt ovat negatiiviset, – – n. -300–370 milj. €. Tämän perusteella on vaikea löytää taloudellisia perusteluja tunnelin toteuttamisen puolesta.”
Helsinki ei ole suostunut tekemään kustannus-hyöty-arviontia satamatunnelista. Nyt sellaisen tekivät riippumattomat ekonomistit järjestöjen tilauksesta.
Lopputulos: Ei kannata.
Vähin johtopäätös tästä olisi tehdä vihdoin huolella ihan virallinen arviointi.

I never thought of this but it is a bit funny that "Hands up" is among the three phrases I can say in Russian.
A Finnish friend was once asked if he could speak any Russian. He said he just had the basic necessities, “Hands Up! Etc”

Dear media, please check the typical tasks of advance teams prior to a potential deployment. This could be identifying areas for troops, equipment & logistics, which is not straight forward in 🇬🇱. It may be as liaison officers to the 🇩🇰Arctic Command, setting up communication etc

For context, this was the first -40 °C in Sodankylä Tähtelä since winter 2017, and only the 2nd such case in this century.
Before the 1990s, temperatures below −40 °C occurred almost every other winter.
