     @aho I think some do harm (like sabotage in water towers), but some are really decent people (like my colleague).

     @KissAnne but I bet that your colleague ain't on an international sanction list

     During the war my grandfather had a good friend who was a russian from Pietari, they did go to the officers mess and drank coffee (I guess coffee substitute) and neither of them were officer. He was guard at a PoW camp for a while.

     @KissAnne but we know a number of those are under sanctions, I think the government should strip them off their Finnish citizenship as it's just to get around restrictions and they are 100% loyal to #kremlin
