Checking for dubs.
Besides, Finland left Swedish control centuries ago. No one cares.
Not exactly. You got tremendous costs associated with doing so that would most likely bankrupt the country. I'm pretty sure jingoism would be refrained even, because you'd be going in to do something expensive without the slightest bit of suggestion it'll pay off well into the long term. Because what else can Finland supply to the Swedish market it can't get already on its own, or even from mainland Europe? Shit, even Finnish Pine Tar is inferior to Stockholm Tar.
I'm just gonna drop that for a long-ass time Finland has been a mostly agrarian economy, and very weak to depression and recession from as far back as the 19th century. It probably wasn't any better off during the Great War, and surely suffered in more than spades in the post-war. And later having the Russian Empire marching all of its Grand Duchy to keep order certainly didn't help investment opportunities in the area. So even if in the last ~5 years since the last episode of revolutionary violence the situation is probably still poor and still very agrarian. And what investment they had is probably pretty low, investors like stability and a low risk of loss, which I think Finland may just be that there.
You would also most likely have problems with illegal immigrations and crime along the border, but since your border with Finland is so small and rough, it's unlikely that crime would amount to much more than smuggling or maybe a little light farmer-robbing/cattle rustling.
And there isn't much up there for either party in the first place. Northern Sweden and Finland as I've gathered is a rough place, and even under a Communist government I'd think the local Sami tribes just do not give a shit and will keep doing as they do. The government would be more occupied with the urban areas and Southern Finland. As per Southern Finland's quality: that's unexplored. They are out of their mines in the north, and southern Finland is pretty much swamp. Hell, Finland in general about this time is already a second-class European nation. You're looking at a nation that'd still be incredibly young, and pitted with scars of Revolution from both Russia and Communists.
All the above said, Radek and company can't really do anything significant. They're confined mostly to waiting for China to make their approach from Siberia to relieve their situation and help get an actual flow of supplies in. At the moment most of what they get is what the Siberians and Chinese can get there through flying the Arctic circle or when the ice packs in the ocean are at its thinnest. It's not a well built region, and some commentators might conclude the European Bloc as being a failure of Communism. So there's no threat - militarily or ideologically - in their existence and probably why Spain hasn't decided to invade them first instead of Ethiopia. Piracy from Saint Petersburg would be a big to get in extra shit. But wouldn't be major. Not enough to invoke an invasion from any of its neighbors. And getting involved there would get your boots dragged into the knee-deep quagmire that is Russia and the Russian underground. The surface of the former nation is barely there. Under neath you got a whole lot of things that the Chinese IB can't really make much sense of.
