There are parallels between the Finnish and Ukrainian resistance to Russian aggression.
In the Winter War of 1939-40, the Finns gave the Red Army a bloody nose. The Finns
became the unlikely allies of the Germans in the Continuation War of 1941-44. Despite the loss
of over 10% of its territory, Finland remained independent and neutral . . . until the current
Russian aggression in Ukraine caused them to apply for membership in NATO, that is.
