Oh God!, once again the zero mentality towards the inversion of meaning. Can't you see it?
The Finns owe nothing to Russia for holding their country hostage, as a colony, in the crude sense of the word, (in fact, its only sense), for more than a hundred years.
Beautiful, dense Karelia forrest helped them endure.
Hint: They would have done it on a desert. Nations cannot be deterred.
Plainly stated: Finland is a well founded culture. The Russians did not realize this. The Finns had made the essential bond upon becoming one, well before the Russian invasion.
By the way, such realization does not imply the exclusion, let alone the margination, of others (read foreigners), real or accused.
More than a few understand, appreciate and endure on both sides, thus to become one. (Mutual contribution is often decried or diparaged.) Not so in Finland.
The U.S., in its present course, may not get so far as the Finns.

Hit the noise and resolve a second derivative. How to do so? Well . . .
