Finland - the 31st member of NATO

Finland's Minister for Foreign Affairs Pekka Haavisto
deposited Finland's instrument of accession with 
Secretary Antony Blinken in Brussels. Finland became a 
NATO member at the moment of the deposit.

Foreign Minister Haavisto:  And since we are now a member of NATO, we have a very important task. And the task is actually to give to you for the deposit also our ratification for Swedish membership.  This is our first act as a member state.
