As a Finnish citizen, reservist this has been a very emotional spring. Both of my grandfathers were in the war with Russia. Both of my grandmothers had to leave and burn their homes in the areas annexed by Russia. Twice. I am 100% for Nato.
- dmos62 4y agoWhy did your family burn its homes as they were leaving? To deny it to Russian (or collaborator) settlers?

- mynameishere 4y agoYeah too bad the continuation war didn't work out for you.
- CRConrad 4y ago> Yeah too bad the continuation war didn't work out for you. Oh, it pretty much did. Sure, there was a Carelia Oblast or something up in the Northwest of the Russian Socialist Soviet Republic -- but never a Finnish Socialist Soviet Republic.

- nevermindiguess 4y agoThis is great. You will enjoy fighting Russia then. Although they never had any intention to fight you country just until you government was about to give it a reason now. But I respect your right to self determine your future - no matter how foolish.
- dieortin 4y agoThey never have any intention to fight any country, right until the moment they invade it and reduce entire cities to rubble.
