Finland will try to repatriate “as soon as possible” children of Finnish mothers who traveled to Syria to join the ISIS terrorist group, Prime Minister Sanna Marin said on Monday. However, the decision to repatriate their mothers will be handled on a case-by-case bases by authorized officials, reported Helsinki Times.
“There’s no obligation to help adults who have entered the region voluntarily,” said Marin. “The child’s best interests take precedence, and it’s the duty of the authorized official to consider and evaluate how the child’s best interests can be protected in the best possible way,” she added.
