Only if we get a few billion€ from the UN or something, to rebuild the area to at least some standards.
Oh and someone needs to figure our where all the ryssä goes. Because obviously they cant stay.
If the plan involves ethnic cleansing and the UN suddenly becoming wealthy, it may not be a good plan.
Yeah, thats what I’m saying. Getting Karelia back is a bad plan.
It really is. All the people who unironically want it back really haven’t thought things through.
It’s not ethnic cleansing if you’re US ally, merely self-defense
Why can’t they stay? Karelia would get awesome again, there would be plenty of jobs.
Because then a future putin can say hes invading to protect russians.
And providing social care etc to them would bankrupt the country
Oh and someone needs to figure our where all the ryssä goes
I have some ideas regarding that but they’re against the instance’s code of conduct and I’m pretty sure most of them are illegal
But I thought Russia was super scared of NATO.
Murmansk or bust.
Putin: Wait, no, irredentism is wrong!
It’s super ironic that Suur-Suomi or Karjala takaisin is mostly a fantasy in the minds of nationalist fascists when Karelians were discriminated against when they fled the war back in the day, and reclaiming the territories now would grow the Finnish population with over 600 thousand Russian immigrants.
We don’t actually want it back, thanks. A very poor zone without our expected infrastructure, and no Finnish people. It would just be friggin’ expensive and it’s not like we have a lack of land here. The average population density in Finland is 19 inhabitants per square kilometre (49/sq mi), making it the third most sparsely populated country in Europe.
So nay to reclaiming something lost 80 years ago.
