Like most other countries, Finland finds Russia creepy. But in a conversation with Sweden, he also admitted to having felt more free at Russia’s house. In the same conversation, he revealed that Russia had asked him for one of his ports and that he had complied with the request.

During one of the Christmas specials, Russia called Finland after finding out that Finland had taken a picture of Belarus smiling. In his usual creepy manner, Russia expressed his unhappiness over the picture and even tried to threaten Finland. Upon overhearing Russia’s threatening language, Sweden quickly took the phone from Finland and abruptly ended the call. Meanwhile on the other end, Russia wonders out loud why Finland hung up on him.

In the manga, Finland was determined to fight Russia alone during the Winter War (with some military assistance from Sweden). In another sketch, Finland‘s thoughts on Russia were summed up as “scary but I’ll try my best”. Finland infamously won the Winter War.
