Yeah, I believe those are figures both Russian and Finnish historians agreed after the fall of Soviet Union when the archives were opened.Death, missing and wounded.

I am sorry if I am not very impressed about Red Army: 1939 you attacked us, wanted to conquer Finland, were bogged down and made peace after 105 days. In 1944 you promised allies to start strategic offensive at the same time as Normandy landing. After 60 days you advanced 100km, even when you...

One Red Army General, looking at a map of the territory just conquered, is said to have remarked: "We have won just about enough ground to bury our dead."

They are alive aren't they, unlike these Finnish children killed by Soviet partisans. And why didn't you evacuate civilians before advancing troops? I dare to think what have happened to Finnish civilians if they had left at the mercy of Red Army. Luckily you only managed to advance only...

.....maybe your history writers has not told you all facts LOL

We just advanced to our old border, nothing more. All right lets leave this OT for now. I hope tensions between Russia and West do not get any worse, current situation is not good for anyone.

Actually Finn Ilkka Salmi is also head of EU civilian intelligence...we are intelligence superpower...like we have always been ;) Hallamaa was appointed Lieutenant Colonel in 1941 and became commander of the HQ Radio Battalion. The Finnish radio intelligence managed to decipher 80% of Soviet...

This is EXACTLY the right time. NATO brand is worn out, we need something new pan European. Also Russia is currently re organizing and in real life quite weak.

Would this be a relief to US also? You could concentrate on Asia? Also saves US taxpayers money. I do not see rise of budgets, just re-organizing....

What if as a sign of trust Supreme commander of European Army would be Finn Georgij Alafuzoff? He is Admiral currently the chief of EU military intelligence. He has graduated with honours from both Finnish and Moscow military academies? He is an orthodox and grandson of an emigrant family from...

Actually combined EU armies are together larger in manpower than US military. This together with TTIP would create nice power duo US-EU vs CHI. Russia and India & co would then play together in a minor league... Like in hockey you got NHL & AHL, or F1 vs F2. Even better would be US-EU/ CHI...

.....who said anything about invading Russia? NATO is bad? And now also European Army is bad?

...............maybe they want to build worlds first pacifistic armed forces ;)

Yes! 70 years wait is coming to an end, old brothers in arms together again. What do forum members think about this? Joint EU foreign policy and European Armed Forces? Especially our friends @Cadian, @marrakesh, @Akim...
