This is Finlands warhistory of last 200-years.
1808 Russia attacked to Finland, 1918 in Finnish civil war Soviet Russia supplied Reds with weapons and if
Reds would have won, Finland would never to become independent. Luckily Whites won and Finland became independent.
1939 Winter War, Soviet Union attacked to Finland and war started. I have saw Vladimir Putins interview where he says
that Finland border was too near Leningrad, so it was important to evacuate border. That was reason for Winter War (link under). http://yle.fi/uutiset/putin_winter_war_aimed_at_correcting_border_mistakes/6539940
My wifes father is from Finlands lost Karelia. He have to left her familys residence, her familys farmland, her hometown
when Soviet Union attacked to Finland. Her own father is buried to hometowns Finnish soldiers grave with other finns
soldiers who only defended their own hometown against Soviet Unions attack. I visit there two years ago with my father-in-law.
Soviet Union had built own memorial onto Finnish soldiers grave. That is how Soviet Union shamed Finnish soldiers graves and
try to chance history, this is not only same kind of place in Finlands lost Karelia.
For our family Winter War and Soviet Unions attack is much more than just couple of rows in history books. This is reason for my
earlier text.
Peace-loving and trusty neighbour dont do this kind of thinks.
