Soviet Union interest in Finland, Estonia,Latvia and Lithuania had to do with security. Stalin feared these countries could serve as base of operations for Germany or West as a whole in an event of attack against Soviet Union. On the other hand, seizing control over these countries would provide Soviet Union with a firmer foothold in area of Baltic Sea.

No. The now defunct Soviet Union consisted of many countries that spread from the east of Europe to the east of Asia. Some of the countries in eastern Europe were part of what was known as the Soviet bloc, but not part of the Soviet Union. This would have included countries like Poland, Romania and Bulgaria, amongst others. Some of the eastern European countries, that now have their independence, like Lithuania, Lativa and Estonia, were part of the Soviet Union.
Eastern. The Soviet Union broke up into 15 countries in 1990 and 1991.
When the Soviet Union did exist (1919-1989), it did border Iran. However, the Soviet Union no longer exists. The current countries of Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan and Armenia, which were all part of the Soviet Union when it did exist, do border Iran today. Russia does not.
