Dual-national Helsinki resident, Vera Ponamoreva said she was worried she wouldn't be able to care for her elderly parents living in Saint Petersburg.

What a heartbreaking story...I wonder if this is a real situation or just told for its effect, because If I would really care for my elderly parents on a usual basis I would move myself or them somewhere closer so it would not require a nearly 5 hour ride by car to 'care for them'.

Go protest at the Russian embassy, their country fucked up big time, not Finland!

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
