        Then there was no nuclear weapons, and now there is (with us) - so the situation is completely different than then - it has changed in our favor fundamentally. The Finns and the army are not needed in the long run, by and large they will not pull against us, and other potential opponents they don’t seem to be. Yes, and we don’t need Finns, we don’t even take Russian-speaking regions of Ukraine, and we don’t need Finns at all.

        From the Russian-Finnish, they immediately made the necessary conclusions, and if not for it, then 41g would have cost us even more. If Russian-Finnish happened again, then I would not have envied the Finns. Which, incidentally, was shown by the Great Patriotic War. The Finns, even in collaboration with the Germans, could not achieve anything good except to maintain the blockade of Leningrad. And in the 44th, even before the end of the war, they generally managed, and surrendered. So they are still warriors, especially the current tolerant generation. They already have “Miss Finland," black as a tarpaulin boot. laughing That's it, the real Finns are over.

      We have already squeezed out everything that you had valuable, and you are more uninteresting, so live calmly, without nerves ... laughing
      And thank Uncle Joe that your national hero, murderer and renegade, Mannerheim, was not hanged as a war criminal and, in general, Finland happily rebounded from retaliation for its bloody crimes during the war years!
