Can be found mostly over at Bluesky for all the reasons you would imagine! Say hello: 🦋 @davidmacdougall
Checking DMs here and may post from time to time, but I would describe myself as operationally inactive on X / Twitter for now.

'Dialogue between the deaf'
It's a hectic diplomatic year for #Finland and for @elinavaltonen who must pilot the @OSCE while two of its members are entrenched in war: but is it still relevant? Kiitos @FIIA_fi @Finland_OSCE @tonisandell @NHelwig #OSCEFI50

.@DaveKeating Euronews was being hollowed out long before the last two months, and long before this latest CEO came on board. It's been a years-long decline. I didn't think anyone could lose the trust of the newsroom faster than the previous French CEO, but this German dude wins!

Saturday is a rugby day with @RosythSharksRFC on the road to @alloarugby (which is not really that far away!) A tougg loss to a team that plays in a higher division but nothing to be ashamed about! 🦈🧡💪🏉

Congratulations to President-elect @realDonaldTrump. I look forward to working closely with you and your administration on the major challenges of our time. Finland and the US are close allies on so many fronts, including security, technology and business.

Juuri näin. Pelottelu oli turhaa: Alkoholin kulutus ei kasvanut. Tähän kun lisätään vielä se tieto, että Alkon väkevien viinojen kulutus on tullut n.10 prosenttia alaspäin, huomaamme, että tämäkin on ollut erittäin hyvä uudistus. Seuraavaksi viinit. verkkouutiset.fi/a/pelottelu…

Congratulations to @sandumaiamd for the victory in the 🇲🇩 presidential elections. Again in the face of Russian hybrid attempts, Moldovans have proved that democracy wins. Finland supports Moldova’s European future.
