Maldives Recovery, Finland Link: Finnish cave-diving experts have helped recover the first two bodies of four missing Italian divers from the “shark cave” (Thinwana Kandu) in Vaavu Atoll, with officials saying the remaining two are expected to be brought up next as conditions stay “very challenging” (poor visibility, strong currents) and the search resumed after a Maldivian military diver died during the operation. Finland Economy Watch: Finland’s unemployment forecast is holding near 10.2% in 2026, with improvement delayed by a weak outlook—though a gradual drop is expected later. Nordic Tourism Signals: Narva hotels report rising Nordic visitor interest, but say the city needs more high-end, year-round capacity and attractions to keep momentum. Baltic Transport Pressure: Russia has ordered doubled rail freight tariffs toward Estonia, Latvia and Finland from June 1, raising costs for cross-border cargo. Green Energy Diplomacy: PM Modi met Nordic leaders in Oslo, including Finland’s Petteri Orpo, focusing on clean energy, trade and sustainability ahead of the India-Nordic Summit. Marine Science Boost: University of Tartu opened an advanced marine lab on Saaremaa to simulate different sea conditions for world-class research.
