Why? Finland, you supported world in war against Putin, but now you give money to Putin’s friend and oligarch?

Edit: apparently it was one oligarch helping another.

    Paikallisosuuspankki is an idealistic co-op bank with perhaps more than a little communist sympathies. That might explain this, in some historical and twisted way.

    And after a fusion with a couple of other co-op banks, they started arbitrarily calling themselves “Suomen Osuuspankki” i.e. “The co-op bank of Finland”, which is a bullshit name if you ask me.

      Less than none. Putin is anti-communist. Maybe more than a little nomenclature sympathies.
