    Lapland War

    You mean what happened when the USSR kicked finlands ass so hard it switched sides? Don’t worry, it happened to lots of once fascist countries in eastern europe at the time.

        the lapland war barely had any casualties for either side, not breaching 5k. It was a barely a skirmish for 7 months overall, you’re acting as if it was some great betrayal.

            I did not claim that, I was defending a comrade’s claim about it. But now I said it, and I call the lapland war a pathetic war against nazis, and not even close to what they did to the soviets. It was just their participation points to make sure the USSR would not cut their country into even smaller pieces. They should have shot all their pro-nazi officials, in politics and government. and committed attacks on all nazi assets in the region. They should have helped in attacking the Nazi coast, or assisting the Red Army. At least. Leningrad remembers. Finland was never a main player in the anti-fascist front. The Yugoslav Partisans killed more nazis in that time than the Finns. MORE GERMANS DIED TO THE ALBANIANS THAN THE FINNS!
