Helsinki's decision to close four of the country's nine border crossings with Russia to stem the flow of undocumented migrants and refugees into Finland is impacting residents with relatives in Russia. At a protest in the capital, people raised concerns about a new 'Iron Curtain'.

    I think they should rather protest in front of their embassy to stop the war in Ukraine.

    Finland’s russian community need to have a good think about what happened to Ukraine’s russian community. Then either shut up or fuck off back to russia. I’m sure Finland would be happy to pay for a one-way ticket to the russian shithole of their choice and three months’ rent to get them started, given the alternative cost of putin deciding the Finnish russians need “liberating” from “nazis”.

    The comments here are disgusting, is it so hard to distinguish between the people and the government? Especially if we are talking about an autocracy and the people who have fled or are trying to flee.

    Even if you are a russophobe you should support them, making it easy for russia to keep its internal victims is only good for russia, and it is especially bad for ukraine when it involves male victims of forced conscription.
