Omniva has issued a new stamp to celebrate Finland’s NATO membership. The stamp was unveiled during a presentation at the Finnish Embassy in Tallinn on 2 June. It was designed by the artist Jaan Saar<\/strong> and it has a print run of 25,000 stamps. <\/p>

“Finland’s accession to NATO is a historic event and the stamp is our symbolic sign of support for the Finnish people to mark this very important moment,” said Omniva’s chair Mart M\u00e4gi<\/strong>. <\/p>

Estonia’s Ambassador to Finland Sven Sakkov<\/strong> said that “Estonia and Finland have long been connected economically, culturally and through people-to-people relations. Now that we are both in NATO, the security of our two countries is also connected. In other words, the destinies of Estonia and Finland are now intertwined.”<\/p>

Estonia has been one of the most vocal supporters of Finland’s NATO membership. Finland joined the alliance on 4 April, following Russia’s invasion in Ukraine in 2022. <\/p>
