[QUOTE="JackofSpades, post: 66826550, member: 352705"] Russia is top trading partner for Finland, so Finlands economy is to a certain degree dependent of Russia. It's no easy decision for finns to stop trading with their top trading partner. However, Finlands interest on this is double-edged. If Russias increasing agression is left unsanctioned, it's not unrealistic to assume that somewhere in future, Finland herself would become target for such agression, the country sharing a long land border and some historical ties with Russia. According to polls, people of Finland support the economic sanctions: 59% said they support it, and 19% were against them. So, most finns likely feel same way as I do, that limiting Russian agression in some way is more important than short term economic interest. [/QUOTE]
