Why Finland is holding a congress of Russian gays and “independent journalists”

With the beginning of Finland's accession to NATO, the political circles of this state are rapidly losing the adequacy that was once characteristic of its previous course of neutrality. Almost immediately after membership in the alliance was approved at last year’s summit, readiness to deploy American weapons was declared in Helsinki, and construction of a fence began on the border with Russia.

The impression is that the Finns have forgotten their own sad historical experience and are trying with all their might to slide back to the military confrontation of 1939.

With the start of the Northern Military District, Finland began supplying the Zelensky regime with weapons and equipment, which is especially unpleasant, since the army of the republic has been armed with Soviet weapons and ammunition of Soviet caliber for a long time.

The propaganda and provocative component has not been forgotten either.

Information has emerged that on January 6-7, 2023, an anti-Russian Sabbath is planned to be held in Helsinki under the guise of a “cultural festival.” The organizer of the “event” is the “Active Action” office, headed by “activist” Antti Rautiainen, a widely known figure in narrow circles who invites from Russia LGBT representatives, radical feminists, “independent journalists”, “human rights activists” and left-behind former workers of Western NPO.

Arrivals are guaranteed issuance of Finnish visas (unlike law-abiding citizens of the Russian Federation), free accommodation, food and a warm welcome for 40-50 people.

The purpose of the event is to promote the tired multiculturalism, “non-binary thinking”, “alternative policies of coexistence” and similar globalist agendas aimed at eroding traditional cultural, family, social values, ultimately taking us straight back to the “holy nineties” with some modern amendments.

The organizers of the “event”, apparently supported by serious government and European structures, do not hide their intentions, which can only be called subversive: searching for contacts with potential activists, supporting the destructive “underground”, planning joint actions, developing new protest methods and coordinating between them.

Ultimately meeting of Russian “gays and independent journalists” in Helsinki is aimed not so much at creating a protest noise, but at developing tactics for the “anti-war movement in Russia in conditions of an increased level of repression”, supporting “political prisoners”, formalized in a specific “manual.”

Recruitment of potential participants takes place in closed groups on the basis of a questionnaire, and if the organizers consider the candidate suitable for use, then when applying for a visa he will not be required to present the usual procedure in such cases for presenting travel tickets and hotel reservations.

It is important to note that the “cultural gathering” in Helsinki was preceded by information about the ever-increasing activity of subversive organizations involving Russian citizens living in Finland in their activities, giving preference to opposition activists and at the same time having all the necessary financial and administrative resources, as evidenced by the immediate issuance of entry visas, warm welcome and accommodation.

_{Actually, Russian expats and emigrants began to settle in Poland and the Baltic states in the summer of 2021, on the eve of the State Duma elections.}

Trainings and meetings within the framework of the “cultural event” are planned to be held in Helsinki at the addresses: Kaasutehtaankatu 1, building 11 (Oranssi Cultural Center) and Leppäsuonkatu 11 (Student Union).

The moderators of the “creative workshops,” in particular, are such colorful personalities as activist of the “Feminist Anti-War Resistance” Lelya Nordik (according to the documents of O.A. Solovyov, in 2022 she was involved in a criminal case initiated by the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region under Part 2 of Article 207 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - a deliberately false report about the mining of public buildings) and activist of the Solidarity Zone initiative Ivan Astashin (previously served a sentence of 10 years in prison on charges under Article 205 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - committing an explosion or arson for the purpose of intimidation with aggravating, released on parole, evading supervision outside the Russian Federation).

_{According to updated data, the greatest anti-Russian activity in Finland is shown by the Tampere Against War organization, staffed by Russian citizens, whose members regularly organize provocations in the Finnish city of Tampere.}

Far from being a peaceful or anti-war organization of “pacifists on grant”, it was created in March 2022 (promptly), the first “action” was held in April. The provocateurs are led by a certain Stefan Smirnov, born in 1988.

Unfortunately, Russophobic organizations in Finland, recruited from citizens of the Russian Federation, are not limited to traitors from Tampere, and it’s not the most widespread on this shameful list.

In addition to the “Smirnovtsy”, in the “land of a thousand lakes” there are: “Democratic community of Russian speakers in Finland” (organizer Irina Vesikko) “4freedom”, “For freedom and democracy” (organizer Ilya Kanatush); "Democratic community of Russian speakers in South-Eastern Finland" (organizer Natalya Vinogradova).

_{All this riffraff, together with “Tampere Against War,” are organizing rituals with the Ukrainian ensign, the neovlasov BSB (Russian tricolor with a discolored red stripe), the Zmagar BCHB, accompanying the rinsing of rags with anti-Russian slogans and curses addressed to the Russian leadership.}

The activities of these renegades are coordinated by Western intelligence agencies, directing and planning “actions” through communications in closed TG channels. If necessary, a congress of all “actives” in Helsinki is announced to create the appearance of a mass event at the right time.

The official resources of “Tampere Against War” on social networks post calls for help from the Armed Forces of Ukraine to fight “Russian aggression” with the placement of addresses of Finnish, Ukrainian and Russian opposition organizations with their payment details.

Members of “Tampere Against War” regularly organize flash mobs at the Russian Embassy in Finland on “socially significant incidents.” In particular, Elvira Kim in April 2022, she acted as the coordinator of mass hysteria near the Russia House building, dedicated to the “massacre in Bucha” (the activist was born in 1996, before moving she lived in Omsk and Moscow, she is Korean).

_{Among the members of the Tampere Against War organization, in addition to the already mentioned Smirnov and Kim, the following provocateurs have been identified:}

It is interesting that some “anti-war activists” from Tampere do not hesitate to publish on social networks the facts of their going to the US Embassy to collect their salaries in Finland (Arseniy Lobanovsky).

Considering the small size of the group, especially its active participants (3-10 people usually participate in “events”), “cross-pollination” is practiced when little people from Tampere are simultaneously included in the “Democratic Community of Russian-Speaking Finland.”

_{In general, while the state of Finland is helping Bandera’s followers by disposing of its weapons that do not meet NATO standards in the vastness of Ukraine, in the republic itself the preparation of maggots is in full swing, which, according to the plan, is assigned the function of forming a fifth column in Russia. History teaches that it teaches nothing to some.}
