Today 82 years ago Finland’s 🇫🇮 Winter War against totalitarian Russia (Sovjet Union) 🇷🇺 ended.

Russia lost ~300-400.000 KIA and missing, six (6) times Finnish casualties.

#SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦 The light will overcome darkness!

2/To Russians 🇷🇺
The unprovoked war made two generations of Finn’s to hate Russia.

My both grandfathers fought the war and survived, but the other one lost his home in Karelia and the other two brothers KIA. My parents were grown to hate Russians.

Stop Putin's mindless war!
3/To Russians 🇷🇺
I have worked a lot in Russia and I have many dear Russian friends. My children have been free of war’s "hate burden".

Russians, do not make future generations in Europe to hate your children just for supporting criminal Putin!

4/To Ukrainians 🇺🇦
The Finnish🇫🇮 Winter war bears many similarities to Putin's uprovoked criminal attack on Ukraine 🇺🇦.

Winter war begun by staged shelling of Russian 🇷🇺 village Mainila -by Russians- and was followed by Stalin’s unprovoked attack.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelling_…
5/To Ukrainians 🇺🇦
The Winter war lasted for 105 days and Russia lost ~150.000 KIA and missing, six (6) times Finnish casualties. Over 400.000 people (12% of 🇫🇮 population) had to evacuated west from Karelia.

In the end also heroic 🇺🇦Ukrainians will win!

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_War
6/ To EU and Nato
Finland was not prepared for Russia's unprovoked war. Part our success was the support of fellow democraties.

Neighboring Sweden 🇸🇪 send 10.000 men, 25 aircrafts and defended city of Turku with anti-aircraft weapons.

7/ To EU and Nato
During the Winter war Finnish Air Force grew by 50% with aircrafts supplied mainly by UK 🇬🇧 and France 🇫🇷. Finland lost 59 plans, Russia between 600-900.

Ukraine 🇺🇦 needs quick supply of aircrafts and anti-aircraft weapons now!
#ClosetheSkyoverUkraine
8/Suomelle 🇫🇮
Suomen päättäjät uskoivat rauhaan liian pitkään emmekä olleet varautuneita Talvisotaan.

Suomen tilaisuus liittyä NATOon tulee käyttää nyt!

Ilman puolustusliittoa Suomi on Venäjän painostuksen, hypridivaikuttamisen ja mielivallan alla.

Edit:
Russia 🇷🇺 lost 150.000 soldiers KIA and missing in Winter war, 300-400.000 including the wounded.

Finland 🇫🇮 lost 25.904 KIA and missing.

EU 🇪🇺 , the US 🇺🇸 and @NATO must support Ukraina’s 🇺🇦 democracy, sovereignty and right for self-determination.

Russia’s criminal aggression must be met with heavy sanctions and baring Russia out of International forums.
#StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦 Image
Trans-Atlantic co-operation between the EU 🇪🇺 and the US 🇺🇸 is now as important as ever during the Cold War.

The EU and the US co-operation to protect our common values and the rule-based World order is crucial, also facing China.

NATO is a crucial part of the Trans-Atlantic co-operation. @NATO must stand firm in protection of democracy, human rights and and the rule-based World order.

Russia 🇷🇺 is a beautiful country. I have many dear Russian friends.

What Russian invasion army under Putin’s orders is doing in Ukraine is condemned by all of the International community.
@MFA @RT

Russia 🇷🇺 could be a prosperous nation if only the country was not run by Putin’s Silovik kleptocrats.

The only way for Russian youth to succeed in the future is to over-throw criminal Putin and choose #peace in Ukraine 🇺🇦. Stand up to Putin insanity!
#StandWithUkraine Image
Putin’s unjustified, criminal invasion is turning Russia 🇷🇺 into a pariah state.

The phase of invasion war can be over in days or weeks, but the World will not forget in a generation. Ukrainian 🇺🇦 people will never forget Putin’s Holodomor.

Trump has already done Putin's wish list: weakening NATO and attacking US allies, supporting nationalist anti-EU & Brexit movements, dividing the people & undermining 🇺🇸 democracy, free press & rule of law, and denying climate crisis & leaving the Paris Agreement.
#Putin’sPuppet Image
Trump Family’s Real Estate business has been build on laundered criminal mob money from the inner circles of Putin, MBS and other corrupt Oil monarchs and barons that does not ask for the highest IRR.

Putin had a clear $$$ interest to place corrupt Trump in the WH.
#Kompromat Image
"There have long been credible allegations of money laundering by the Trump Org. which, if true, would pose a real threat to the United States in the event that Russia were able to leverage evidence of illicit financial transactions against the president."

Khashoggi was investigating Trump’s connection to the Saudis, and was murdered.

@RepAdamSchiff really needs to get the Saudi transcripts as well.
#Khashoggi #Ukrainegate #MAGA

cnn.com/2019/09/27/pol…
The CIA concluded that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ordered the Khashoggi’s murder.

Trump prevented CIA Director Gina Haspel, or any other US intelligence officer, from speaking to the U.S. Senate concerning the #Khashoggi murder.
#Corruption

CIA intercepted 11 messages from the crown prince to the head of the death squad around the time Khashoggi was being butchered.

MBS conducted a brutal assasination and Saudi-Arabia must be subject to severe Maginsky Act sanctions.
