Satellite images show Russia’s rearmament in Northern Europe: Finland does not want to follow the war hysteria

For Sally Rajski, the reality is this: Her home country Finland and Russia have never had any conflicts, the government in Ukraine took brutal action against the civilian population in the eastern Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Luhansk in 2014, and Helsinki spreads anti-Russian propaganda. In general, “in the West” there is a lot of Russophobia.

In an interview with the Russian state news agency Tass, Rajski did not mention that Finland lost around a tenth of its territory in Karelia to Moscow in its defensive battle against the Soviet Union and that the brutal Winter War of 1939 was burned into the collective memory. Nor that the supposed “people’s republics” in Donbass have been occupied by Russia in violation of international law since 2014.

Instead, she claims on Instagram that Finland is displaying Nazi symbols like the swastika more and more shamelessly. Rajski is using a recurring narrative in Russian disinformation campaigns: Finland is ideologically at home in fascism – and, similar to Ukraine, should therefore possibly have to be denazified.
