"Kremlin's Warning: Polish Troop Deployment to Russian Border Heightens Tensions"

The Kremlin has warned that any decision by Finland to allow a concentration of troops on its border with Russia would be seen as a threat, after Poland offered to send military advisers to help Helsinki police the frontier. Finland has closed its entire border with Russia for two weeks to halt an unusually large flow of asylum seekers, which it claims is a "hybrid attack" orchestrated by Moscow. The Finnish authorities have stated that they are unaware of the Polish offer, and the Kremlin has called it an unprovoked and unjustified measure.
