Finland is acquiring the high altitude, David's Sling missile defense system from Israel. Helsinki considers the system a high priority for its own defense due to neighboring Russia's ongoing missile attacks on civilian and military targets in Ukraine. Stubb, who took office in March, has defined Finland's new foreign policy stance as "values-based realism," which was about "achieving things in the world as it is," instead of "promoting only the world as how I want to see it."
