- ptaipale 10y agoThey obviously have sections for various foreign languages, including (but not limited to) Finnish. Native Finnish-speakers have mostly been eliminated in Russia, except for some old people who are not up to working in the troll army. But some people there still do study Finnish, and moreover, the troll army can direct volunteer trolls - e.g. people who were Communist sympathizers and hate USA and NATO. Their dream is gone but their hate is still there. You'll find the "representative of Donetsk Republic" Johan Bäckman running in the elections for the "Finnish Workers Party", a fringe leftist party that got about 0.03 % of the popular vote. That doesn't stop him from representing "the Finnish view" in Russian media.
