This is the reason I would love to see France quit

I dont know from where you dig your theories but this is not a case.
Finns dont love or fear russians as an nation but one thing is for sure: We dont turn our back to you on any cases and reason for that you can find from your "Relation" history.

ROTFLMAO))) This is just in on FB.

A recent dialog spotted on VKontakte wall or Twitter ( I assume.)

Oksana ( from Ukraine): No matter who says what, my friends in Germany were voting for Ukraine.
The Rooster ( from Belorussia): You mean during the Eurovision?
Oksana: Obviously, I'm talking about Eurovision.
Mayday2 ( from Russia):How could they vote "for Ukraine", if Ukraine didn't even participate?
Oksana: Putin told you that Ukraine was not there?
Mayday2: Now was it there?

I'm sure Finnish helped to ramp up those numbers

Amount of alcohol imported privately to Finland is higher than the amount of all alcohol consumed in restaurants...

edit: Finnish tourists buy over 1/3 of the alcohol sold in estonia

Russia is unpopular and still they were given votes from almost all of the countries, new and old.
