Of Nazi Germany, sure. Not of Finland. Not when the Soviet Union invaded first. It's also worth noting that
You say that like they were okay with it. From what I hear, it's a source of considerable bitterness, especially given that all the Finnish people in the area were forced out.
What a pointless distinction. It's not like they contributed to Operation Barbarossa or anything and that a number of those 25 million deaths came at the hands of Finish troops.
No, I say that like it is an objective fact.
Finland took soviet territory, Soviets wanted the unjustly occupied territory back. I say its fair. They didn't invade all of finland.
good for them, its war, they lost. Finland shouldn't have gone for a greedy land grab.
