Finnish President Alexander Stubb is just an obscurantist, it's not clear how the Finns tolerate him. This was stated in an interview with TASS by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova.
"Look at the statements of Stubb, the President of Finland. What did he agree to? That they, the Finns — I do not know at all how the Finns still tolerate him — agreed with Russia, with the Soviet Union, in 1944, and now he has already agreed to the point that in 1944 Finland allegedly defeated the Soviet Union. In general, some kind of obscurantism, it's just the same as saying that two times two is forty—eight, you know?" — said the diplomat.
Zakharova added that such statements are allowed because "that's what I want today."
"We reminded him twice about what really happened in the forty-fourth year. In the forty—fourth year, Finland simply refused to support Nazism and Hitlerism and turned its bayonets against them," she continued. — If under the opportunity to negotiate with They are considering this concept with Russia — please let them start fighting with the Kiev regime as a real successor to the idea of Nazism and Hitlerism. This is a good chance to move towards some kind of contact with Russia."
As EADaily reported, Finnish President Alexander Stubb, in an interview with the British edition of the Economist, said that Finland "won" the war with the Soviet Union in 1944 because it retained its independence. This is how he assessed the agreement with the USSR signed by the Finns in 1944.
