You’re too geographically close to Russia.

They are part of NATO now, so they’re safe

Even before that, we had formidable defence force.

Just us alone, with EU’s largest artillery, but on top of that, NORDEFCO and the defence clause of the EU.

But NATO is a bonus yeah.

Unless you’re a spy who ran from Russia (and basically not even then, as we have supo), why would that matter?

Unlike the US, Finland has and continues to successfully avoid Russia meddling in it’s affairs.

We got labour protection, social security and have among other things, fixed homelessness.

Yes, there’s a lot of issues as well, but compared to other countries, I’d say the average person is fairly well off in Finland in terms of financial security. Mental health is a whole other matter, though.
