The US and Finland are set to build 11 icebreakers together under a joint plan announced by President Donald Trump and his Finnish counterpart, Alexander Stubb, at the White House.
The signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Helsinki and Washington came during the Finnish President and Prime Minister’s visit to Washington yesterday.
Under the agreement, Washington will entail Finnish shipyards build four icebreakers, with the first set to be delivered in 2028, and the remaining seven would then be built in the US with assistance from Finland.
