“Whining about WW2 era Soviet actions add nothing useful to the discussion princess,”
Oh, historical context about the last war between Russians and Finns doesn’t matter in an article about Russia and Finland and NATO? You moron.
“nor does the hand-wringing about Russia’s ‘designs’ on Finland as relayed to the world by some Swedish tabloid or Finnish website.”
Right because what the Swedes and Finns write or publish clearly has nothing to do with what the Swedes and Finns might think based on their own history or anything, right? Moron.
Now you’re just embarrassing yourself, moron. Since you have nothing useful to add to this discussion, as you just demonstrated, I suggest you shut up.
Lol...if you're really going to provide historical context princess, you might do well to remember which side the United States fought on in WW2. Geographically speaking, American tax-payer subsidized NATO looks more like 1940s Nazi Germany every day. Something conservatives here should be very concerned about.
You also might consider that Russia provides Finland with a large stable export market as well as billions in direct investment, which sustained Finland's recovery over the past decade. As Europe's economy has unraveled the share of trade Finland does with Russia continued to grow, and an economic slow down in Russia would have an big impact on Finnish economy as well.
This expanding economic relationship provides the motivation for EU socialists, their western ideological counterparts, and a few useful idiots on the right to dig up decades old animosities and try to push them as contemporary problems.
Same old tired playbook Biden/Kerry/Obama are running in Ukraine.
