How about Texas selecting Tarja, who told on his speech "It would be a blessing for Finland to join Soviet Union in a peaceful manner. At the same time we would be able to get rid of capitalist yoke, since capitalism will die anyway in the next 20 years. Finland together with Soviet Union cold be forerunner towards a communist society".
Is Finland going to be part of Russia?
Finland - I received a letter from a friend of mine under the second round of Presidential Elections held in Finland. In this round we meet Tarja Halonen (Social Democrat Party i.e. ex rejoined communist party into socialist party) and Sauli Niinistö from National Coalition Party.
How about Texas selecting Tarja, who told on his speech "It would be a blessing for Finland to join Soviet Union in a peaceful manner. At the same time we would be able to get rid of capitalist yoke, since capitalism will die anyway in the next 20 years. Finland together with Soviet Union cold be forerunner towards a communist society". A frien of mine told this quote existing in Karjala-magazine explaining her speech on the 1st of May in 1976 on a Labor Day. Unfortunately I had no time to check this source, so I sent it into National Coalitions Office. And based on happened things it really do not make any difference into my policy…
Tarja Halonen’s apponent Sauli Niinistö has got a simple theme in his campaign simply saying "The time of beign pitted against is over" and "Sauli Niinistö - President for Labourmen".
I am sure, that some land owners from Texas - like J W Bush - would go for the 'tie lady'? Or could owning some piece of land really mean so much? How many farmers really need that piece of land, not to mention all those need to be fed from what ground offers to us? Oh yes, owning a piece of land matters. To every USA citicen, I say! However if it were J.W.Bush, that had outspoken these words in 1976, then would you still trust him having changed his political way of thinking into capitalism? I must say I would not go for someone having told to join Texas into Soviet Union or Russia. Someone need to own farm and take care of it, thus everyone can not own the same land piece. If it is owned by to g.o.v. it does not feed many.
This Southern Wind –presidentialeElection- warming up Russia relations in Europe may be nothing else, than antoher Russia expansion attempt say most paranoid Finns. Usually the same Finns forget, that these things does not exist in real world. And even at Soviet time they had plans to replace whole villages with Finnish speaking and acting Russians, we must take into account it being practically impossible to put into practise.
However, based on acts committed against Finns by socialist government, there are strong dubts, that Russia would have influence on Finland's Business. And they do as being one of our oil and gas seller, and market investor.
I do like Russia Kitchen and Russian people, but I do not like Stalin, communism or socialism. Too many violation have taken place and some of them I have also blamed incorrectly Russia(n). Even so I find it impossible to support someone having committed too many mistakes on her presidential post.
