Helsinki Times was a weekly newspaper in Finland which provided news about Finland and the world for English-speaking readers resident in the country.[1]

History and profile

Helsinki Times was established in April 2007 by Iranian-born doctor, writer, journalist and director Alexis Kouros who settled in Finland in 1990.[2] The paper was published in tabloid format.[3]

In 2014, Helsinki Times signed a cooperation agreement with Helsingin Sanomat on the publication of selected Helsingin Sanomat articles, translated from Finnish into English. Through the agreement, the Helsinki Times website became part of Helsingin Sanomat webpage, and titles of English articles were placed on the Helsingin Sanomat web page.[4]

Helsinki Times went bankrupt in February 2015 and the printed edition ceased publication.[5]
