3.2
The EU’s digital single market will operate in a more
dependable manner than at present
Finland will strive to reduce the country risks within the EU and the international community
in order that the free flow of data can be secured without compromising the fundamental
rights of citizens and the objects of legal protection of businesses. Finland’s goal is to
achieve a common approach within the EU and the international community to the conditions
and limitations of state interference in the privacy or information security of a person in
another State. In drawing up treaties, Finland will give particular attention to the effects of
such agreements on Finnish companies that produce and use information security goods
and services.
