"The third war Finland had to fight was the Lapland War, where we were now up against our once brothers in arms. How we ended up in this situation was neither the Finns' nor the Germans' fault. It was the Finnish-Soviet armistice that was the culprit. The Soviet Union had insisted on a clause requiring Finns to disarm the Germans that were still within Finnish territory. This had to be completed in virtually no time and to top it off, the final provision of the clause stated that the Red Army was ready and able to provide assistance. And so we had no other choice except to start fighting because there were Soviet troops at three locations on Finnish territory, poised to intervene. Had this been allowed to happen, Finland would have been occupied." You can't be me, I'm taken
