A concern emerging across [[Northern Europe]] is whether the region entered a historic [[strategic]] shift without fully understanding the cost. Finland's long-standing [[neutrality]] once allowed it to act as a buffer between [[Russia]] and [[the West]], maintaining stable [[trade]], cheap [[energy]], and [[diplomatic]] channels even during the [[Cold War]]. Those ties have now been severed at remarkable speed. Energy prices, [[construction]] costs, and [[inflation]] have all climbed sharply, while [[security]] tensions continue [[escalating]].
