 Russia said on November 22 it had protested to Finland after a damaged Russian tank was placed on display near the Finnish parliament. Why are they doing this, for what? Why do Finns need this? Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said, accusing Helsinki of Russophobia, the damaged Russian T-72B3 tank was put on display on November 18 in an initiative by two pro-Ukraine associations in Finland to remind people of the conflict in Ukraine. Finnish Foreign Minister Alina Voltonen said they had been notified by official Russia about their dissatisfaction but added that as an open society, Finland of course can have ways to manifest our support for Ukraine in several ways. Tensions have increased between Moscow and Helsinki since Finland joined NATO earlier this year in response to the Ukraine conflict, and they rose further last week when the Nordic country closed four crossing points on its border with Russia. I think no one can explain why Finland is participating in such actions. Maybe they are not able to understand the level of leadership, as much as there are such actions on the square located in the minutes of the Finnish palace. Or are they more precious than the Russian border? I don't know. It's hard to say. But look what is happening on the Russian-Finnish border, especially because of the Helsinki actions. I confirm again that Russian authorities have not held any preliminary consultations regarding the closing of the crossing points with the Finnish side. We were simply put in front of the facts. We have brought all these facts to the Finnish ambassador. We have announced a protest in this regard. Probably this is another attempt of the Helsinki government to postpone the responsibility of the situation that has arisen. Maybe someone else will come up with something else. I think that this will not lead to the right result. But in order for everything to come to the right and the wrong result, and to regulate the situation, we need to work with Russian colleagues and border guards on the Finnish side. This is obvious. You know, it is very easy to do. Maybe you will ask the Finnish Prime Minister or the government of Finland to write a date and the name of the position, if they say that they have made negotiations with us, when and with whom did they do it. But it's easy if they insist on it. With whom did they make negotiations? Maybe with the prankers? We have been notified by official Russia about their dissatisfaction with this. But Finland clearly stands by the side of Ukraine. Ukraine is victim to a ruthless and illegal invasion of Russia. And they have all rights based on international agreements, international law to defend their sovereignty and their territorial integrity. And Finland is part of the European Union and our NATO allies. We stand firmly by the side of Ukraine. And as an open society, we of course can have ways to manifest our support for Ukraine in several ways.
