Appendix: Note on Military Expenditure,

Transkriptio

1 Appendix: Note on Military Expenditure, Statistics on Finland's military expenditure, as outlined in the following table, convey a slightly unrealistic picture of Finland's defence capabilities. Finland has consistently spent more money on defence than statistics reveal. For example, the appropriations of the border guard are not included in military budgets (since the border guard is under the Ministry of the Interior). Neither are major defence construction projects in central and northern Finland included in military budgets, as funds for these projects come from the budgets of other ministries. Furthermore, pensions are paid out of the budget of the Ministry of Social Affairs and conscripts are paid even nowadays only a few pounds per day. It has been estimated that if Finland paid its conscripts the same rate that is paid in Denmark, Finland would have to increase its defence budget by 25 per cent. The adding of the expenditures of the Border Guard would increase the military budget by another 10 per cent. 163

Subsequently, Greece demanded a similar prohibition for Bulgaria. Finally Great Britain wanted the prohibition to be extended to all former enemies. 62. The Aland islands were declared neutral by the League of Nations as long ago as 1921, after a dispute between Finland and Sweden. 63. If one takes into account all military-related expenditure then the range is between 4.9% (in 1949) and 7.4% (in 1955). In the 1930's (excluding 1939) the figure had been between 20% and 25%.

9 Notes to pp have contributed to the Soviet readiness to conclude a 'mild' treaty with Finland. The first signs of Zhdanov's fall from favour were detected in From the beginning of 1948 his public appearances became rare. He disappeared from the Soviet leadership in July 1948 and died in August See W. G. Hahn, Postwar Soveit Politics. The Fall ofzhdanov and the Defeat of Moderation , pp To add to the Soviet uncertainty over Finnish reactions, the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Finnish Parliament deliberately leaked information to the Soviet representatives revealing that 'any negotiations for a FCMA Treaty were, from the Finnish view, 'very serious and our demands unconditional'.

According to J. Suomi, who has access to President Kekkonen's archives, Lebedev had informed Prime Minister Kekkonen about the Soviet offer even before contacting Paasikivi. See Suomenmaa, 17 January The fact that the Soviet offer was considered as a barter by Finnish political leaders is revealed in Paasikivi's diary. See Paasikivi, J. K.
