    Finland's accession to NATOHE 315/2022 vp

    Arvoisa puhemies! Esitän, että käsittelyssä nyt olevat hallituksen lakiesitykset ja ulkoasiainvaliokunnan siitä tekemä mietintö hylätään, ja esitän eduskunnan hyväksyttäväksi seuraavia lausumia: Ensimmäiseksi: ”Eduskunta edellyttää, että Suomi ilmoittaa, ettei se salli missään olosuhteissa ydinaseiden sijoittamista…

    Finland's accession to NATOHE 315/2022 vp

    Arvoisa puhemies! Marinin hallitus ehdottaa Suomen Nato-jäsenyyden hyväksymistä — ja ehdoitta. Ainoatakaan varausta, jolla rajoitettaisiin Naton sotilaallisen infrastruktuurin laajentumista Suomeen, ei hallitus esitä. Ei ulkomaalaisten sotilaitten pysyvälle läsnäololle, ei Naton sotilastukikohdille eikä asevarastoille…

    Finland's accession to NATOHE 315/2022 vp

    Arvoisa puhemies! Marinin hallitus on muuttanut Suomen suhtautumista ydinasesopimukseen. YK:n viimeisessä äänestyksessä ydinasekieltosopimuksesta Suomi äänesti koko sopimusta vastaan. Mitä sanottavaa pääministerillä on Suomen kannanmuutoksesta? Miksi Suomi on muuttanut kantansa ydinasekieltosopimukseen kielteiseksi?…

    Arvoisa puhemies! Edustaja Kyllönen osui naulan kantaan, kun totesi, että kukaan ei halua syödä haukuttua leipää ja kaikista vähiten varmaan se, joka sen leivän tuottaa ja leipoo. Se olisi ihan hyvä kaikkien ruokapöydässä muistaa. Mutta kaksi muuta asiaa pohjoisen näkövinkkelistä: Eli suojelu- ja virkistysalueitten…

    Arvoisa puhemies! Afganistan-operaatio ei todellakaan ollut mikään menestys, ei Suomelle eikä Nato-johtoiselle koalitiolle. Aikoinaan olisikin pitänyt miettiä, miksi sinne lähdettiin, mitä saavutettiin ja kuinka operaatio muuttui ajan myötä. Ja nyt pitäisi uusiin operaatioihin lähdettäessä tai niitä laajennettaessa…

    Arvoisa puhemies! Suomessa järjestetään noin 80 kansainvälistä sotaharjoitusta vuodessa, mutta valitettavasti joskus nämä harjoitukset ovat saaneet arveluttavia piirteitä. Aikoinaan Hankoniemen maihinnousuharjoituksessa yhdysvaltalainen johtaja sanoi, että ”olemme täällä näyttämässä voimaa”. Rissalan…

Asia on edennyt ripeästi täällä etelän päässä, ja sille on ollut edellytyksenä, että pohjatyö paikallisella tasolla on tehty huolellisesti. Aikoinaan kunnan päättäjät halusivat…

    Arvoisa puhemies! Lapin Kansan etusivulla oli alkuviikosta kuva, jossa poseerasi kaksi puolustusministeriä, puolustusministeri Kaikkonen ja Hultqvist, hävittäjäkoneitten edessä — eikä siinä mitään, Suomi—Ruotsi-yhteistyölle on ihan luontevaa tilausta ja luontevaa pohjaa.

    Arvoisa puhemies! Tuskin kukaan kaipaa semmoista menoa takaisin, mitä nähtiin vielä jokin aika sitten pohjoisen matkailukeskuksissa. Siellä ei piitattu annetuista ohjeista ja varomääräyksistä tuon taivaallista. Onneksi kuitenkin kriisitietoisuus on reilusti parantanut. Kaikista härskeintähän tuossa asetelmassa oli se,…

Pohjoismainen yhteistyö huoltovarmuuden sektorilla on itsestäänselvä asia jo maiden sijainnin vuoksi, mutta myöskin maanpuolustustiedotuksen suunnittelukunnan selvitys tuki sitä, että mitä lähempänä yhteistyökumppanit ovat, sitä mielekkäämmäksi yhteistyö koetaan ja sitä laajempi hyväksyntä sillä…

    Arvoisa puhemies! Huoltovarmuus on totta kai tärkeää niin siviilipuolella kuin sitten puolustussektorilla, mutta minä kyllä ihmettelen tätä vauhtia, joka varsinkin viime kaudella oli niin tavaton. Meillä on yksi kolmenkeskinen yhteistyösopimus ja kahdeksan kahdenkeskistä sopimusta, enkä ole ihan kauhean vakuuttunut…

Velvoite nostaa henkilöstömitoitus 0,7 ammattihenkilöön asiakasta kohti totta kai parantaa vanhustenhoivaa ja turvallisuutta, mutta tämmöinen lakisääteinen kaavamainen velvoite ei kyllä läheskään kaikkia ongelmia poista — en usko, että kukaan niin kuvitteleekaan — ja valvonnan pitää olla kunnossa.…
