- The idea of forming an Estonian–Finnish federation has been discussed several times in history, but has never been achieved. The idea of a federation was born as early as the 19th century, but it did not really take shape until the beginning of the 20th century. In Finland, views on the Union were mainly negative, and the idea of a union of countries was maintained mainly in Estonia. Finland did not want to focus on the Baltic states, but rather on Scandinavia. The same reasons also led Estonia to seek allies in the Nordic countries. The most prominent supporters of the Estonian–Finnish union were the President of Estonia Konstantin Päts. After the June 1940 coup, Konstantin Päts drew up a draft of the Estonian–Finnish federation, which was handed over to Paavo Hynninen, an assistant to the Finnish Foreign Minister, through the commanding officer H. Grabb before Päts was deported to Russia. (en)
