That’s actually in Swedish but I found the column in Finnish too. Sofi is a writer with an Estonian mother so she knows a thing or two about living under Soviet rule. I just skimmed through what she wrote.

We had autonomy from Russia but half of Finns never wanted to live under any other rule than our own. We had to fight Russia, loose a lot of land and people, and have a civil war but we got our own country like it always should have been. I’m sure Ukraine can relate, you are your own people, culture and land. We have been in peace with Russia in my lifetime, and my parents lifetime, but living next to Russia has always been a delicate dance. We can see through Putin’s bullshit, always have, because it’s still not that long ago when we were in war with Russia.
