Eight candidates for the presidential elections in the Republic of Finland pledged this week to stop arms sales to the UAE if they won the February elections, according to the report published by the Middle East Eye website .

The Republic of Finland appears to be on the brink of halting all arms sales to the UAE after images showing that the UAE is using Finnish weapons in the war against Yemen.

The announcement came after a public outcry over images published earlier this month that showed Emiratis were using a Finnish armored vehicle in the war on Yemen.
