Foreign policy

A state's foreign policy is its objectives and activities in relation to its interactions with other states, whether bilaterally or through multilateral platforms.[2] The Encyclopedia Britannica notes that a country's foreign policy may be influenced by "domestic considerations, the policies or behaviour of other states, or plans to advance specific geopolitical designs."[2]

J. K. Paasikivi, the President of Finland, was remembered as a main architect of Finland's foreign policy with the Soviet Union after the Second World War.[1] From left to right: Paasikivi and chairman of the Supreme Soviet Kliment Voroshilov in Moscow.
