Leningrad never gave up. City of Lenin lives!

@kosiak10851 Finland never gave up despite Soviet aggression.

[kosiak10851]

@jglammi Yes fins had all chanses to be exterminated by RED army. So why can't you just thank Soviet Union for letting you finish this war as neutral in 1944. They gave up and they shiould thank Stalin for this chance

@kosiak10851

Stalin gave up, he had to shift the troops towards Berlin, and then to far-east. That you mention EXTERMINATION sounds a reasonable cause to say no thanks.

@kosiak10851 The main reason to why the RKKA didn't exterminate Finland was because the finns won

a streak of 8 victories in battle. Making RKKA take heavy losses and tie up large forces.

Roosevelt and Churchill didn't want to see a democratic nation fall for communism so they persuaded

Stalin to concentrate his forces on the Germans. Stalin tried with a coup 1948 but failed.

E' una vergogna che la Guerra d'Inverno e le sue conseguenze vengono praticamente ignorate dai libri di Storia italiani. L'importanza di tutti questi eventi è indiscutibile.

Cosa è successo ai libri di Storia? La forza che i finlandesi hanno dimostrato nella loro lotta contro i russi non andava bene ai filocomunisti? Mah...

@MobiusDragon89

Non andava bene ai filocommunisti ? Forse.

Mi chiedo perchè le conseguenze non hanno mai stato studiate.

Stesse ragione, puo darsi.
