From the transcript

In our lead story today, we travel to the far north to the Asia Finland, and its 1,340 km, that's 830 mile border with Russia. Stretching across barren, tundra and snowy tiger forests, the borderland between Russia and Finland is quite an often and in hospitable place.

Following Finland's accession, though, to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization on NATO, it is, by far, the longest land border the NATO shares with its great adversary.

And on Monday, July 2, and a quiet little ceremony that went unnoticed across most the world, the United States and Finland agreed to put untold numbers of American troops all up and down that long border.
