** The thing about covert operations agencies is that they tend to perform operations covertly. Also, just because Finland isn't in NATO does not mean it isn't an ally of the US -- not all US allies are in NATO and that's not even what NATO is about. Besides, even if Finland did object, it's not about to go to war with the US over it. Most of the time when these things do happen, the "host" country puts out a statement of "disapproval" and leave it at that.

** Marissa asks Erik this question when they meet in Berlin, and his answer is, "kids grow up". Based on the beginning of the movie, it's pretty obvious that now that Hanna is becoming an adult, she wants more out of life than living in the woods and never meeting anyone, and Erik realizes this. That's why he gives her the chance to leave. However, this raises a further question: since the CIA doesn't know what Hanna looks like now that she's grown up, nor do they know where in the world she is, why not just set up a false identity for her and not get Marissa involved with her at all? Even if they couldn't do this in Finland (every Finn has a unique identity number, which is required for setting up a bank account, renting an apartment, visiting the hospital, etc; so starting a life in Finland without one would be quite difficult), surely they could travel to some other country so Hanna could start a life there. (This seems to have been how the clown guy in Berlin was supposed to help Hanna, as he had a blank passport for her.) It's not like the CIA was gonna do random DNA tests to all blonde teenagers across the world, just in case they might catch Hanna. And, if Erik wanted Marissa dead so there would absolutely no knowledge of Hanna's true identity left, why didn't he kill Marissa herself? Why get Hanna involved in that?
