The #Finns built the #Agricola house in 1902 in #Viipuri / #Vyborg and a #Ukrainian #drone hit it instead of the #fsb office on the other side of the street. The house took limited damage, sadly #russians just leaves the hole as it is in the rainy weather. It's heart breaking to see how little care has been given the buildings in this once beautiful city of #Finland

Finland ranks as "world's happiest country" for 9th year in a row
Finns rated their life satisfaction at an average of 7.8 on a scale of 1-10.
#Finns #LifeSatisfaction #AverageRating #ScaleOf1to10 #HappinessScale
This really has to stop… the #Finns dominating every top-10 list. Best 🧑🏽🎓education, best 🏥 healthcare, best ⚽️ Jari Litmanen, highest standard of living 🌱….fine.
But then casually, almost lazily, forcing U.S. military leadership to step in during a #NATO exercise and tell the Finnish troops to take it down a notch? That’s next-level psychological warfare.
Well played, #Suomi …Well played…
