Finnish port workers have postponed a strike that would have brought a halt to all imports and exports.
The workers had planned an all-out strike for Friday, but were forced to reschedule by the Finnish minister of Labour, Anni Sinnemäki.
Transport workers' union AKT said: "[The] Labour minister has, acting within the scope of her authority, postponed the beginning of the dock strike by two weeks."
"If an agreement on a new collective agreement is not reached in the negotiations, the strike will begin on 3 March."
