1/ My book on #Finlandization and #PostFinlandization will soon be published in English.
Between its covers, you will find the reasons why this kind of approach towards #Ukraine is ill-informed, even dangerous.
Until then, you can read it in 🇫🇮&🇪🇪👇

As Olaf Scholz meets NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in Berlin today, he opposes a membership perspective for Ukraine.
Now a counter proposal has popped up in my discussions with officials in Berlin: Ukraine should take a "neutral" status like Finland had for decades ... 1/
1/ Today, my book on #PostFinlandization is presented in #Estonia n with an afterword by former Foreign & Justice Minister of 🇪🇪, Rein Lang.
He proposed 🇫🇮-🇪🇪 research cooperation in the field of #intelligence #history, especially on contacts between @Suojelupoliisi & the #KGB.
The accusation was very justified… After the Cold War, the phenomenon transformed & adapted, continuing as #PostFinlandization (-2022).
Rather than #Germanisierung, I would talk about #Schröderization, still influencing not only within the SPD, but also other parties.
#Germany
Finland was accused of Finlandisierung towards Russia during the Cold War.
Now, during the burning war in Ukraine, is it appropriate to accuse Germany of Germanisierung?
#germanisierung #germany #Ukraine
However, this is far from the whole story.
Above everything, we must investigate what #Russia did in #Finland (and through 🇫🇮 in the #EU) after the #Soviet collapse. #Energy, #DarkMoney…
Yet #Finlandization & #PostFinlandization were related, not fully separate phenomena.
2/ Unlike the other #Nordic & #Baltic states, #Finland has not opened the files despite (or rather, due to) the past #Finlandization & deep #USSR/#Russia n influence networks.
It is time for full #lustration.
Please read the piece by @olivernmoody. 👇

MP @heikkinenjanne (@kokoomus) proposed #Finland should establish an institute to investigate the past #Kremlin influence, i.e. #Finlandization and #PostFinlandization.
@PetteriOrpo’s new cabinet is, after all, going to investigate the 2000s from this perspective.
#Lustration
Kiitos KE @heikkinenjanne ehdotuksesta #suomettuminen-tematiikkaa tutkivan instituutin perustamiseksi!
Ei politikoiden, vaan totuuden etsintä edellä. Olisi linjassa hallituksen tulevan #Venäjä n vaikutusta selvittävän hankkeen kanssa.

3/ While Finland was never a communist dictatorship, all the elements above were present in the country after the Cold War.
#Finlandization turned into #PostFinlandization, protecting local #KGB-connected elites. Staying outside #NATO made the problem even more dangerous.
@Virkki5 "debate on #PostFinlandization and #Russia-affiliated corruption in the country has exploded"
"our credibility as NATO allies with such track record is questionable"
Dial down the hyperbole.
After spending the whole night writing about #PostFinlandization (a phenomenon now disappeared for good) I did’t wake up to notice it is the Independence Day of #Finland.
Guess who are defending it right now?
Exactly.
Therefore,
#SupportUkraine and #ArmUkraineNow!
