Abstract
Trade between Finland and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R.) began following the World War II as a devise to pay reparations. The objective of this study was to determine the progress in trade between the two countries, types of products imported and exported, and the future of the trade relationship. Analysis of the available data indicated that Finland imported mostly raw materials from the U.S.S.R. and exported finished goods. The increasing demand in the domestic market for the raw materials exported to Finland and export of finished products from the U.S.S.R. to other countries may in the longrun create some trade problems between Finland and the U.S.S.R.
