Re: On Finlandisation (none / 0)
Which brings us to the Finland of today, which we can all agree is in pretty decent shape, with excellent education, health care, social safety net, several internationally successful companies, I could go on. Very little of this would have been even remotely possible had Finland been annexed by the Soviet Union in the aftermath of World War II

Pointed question: would this have been possible if Finland joined the West(NATO/US sphere of influence)?
