France–Finland relations are foreign relations between France and Finland. France was one of the first countries which recognised Finland's independence on 4 January 1918. Diplomatic relations between them were established on 24 January 1918. Both countries are full members of the European Union and NATO. According to a 2005 BBC World Service Poll, 48% of Finns view French influence positively, with 26% expressing a negative view.[1] There are an estimated 7,000 Finns living in France.[citation needed] Both countries are members of the Council of Europe, European Union, NATO, and Eurozone. France strongly supported Finland's NATO membership during the latter's accession process.
