Oh, and maybe add then points like: "Take the peace deal or Finland takes it's territory lost in 1940 back. And if that's still not enough, Germany will take back Königsberg." (jk) |
Just for the record, I don't think there's very much interest in regaining our lost territory here in Finland due to decades of decay under Russian rule. It would probably be incredibly expensive to have that territory again.

Projections estimate that Russia's population will fall to about 132 million in the next two decades. The United Nations has predicted that in a worst-case scenario, by the start of the next century, Russia's population could almost halve to 83 million. In March, Raksha said Russia might be seeing its lowest birth rates since the late 1700s. Births dropped by 6 to 7 percent in February and by 3 to 4 percent in March, the demographer said. In the first quarter of 2025, between 293,000 and 294,000 births were registered in Russia—2.4 percent lower than the first quarter of last year, he said. "March 2025 likely recorded the lowest number of births on the territory of today's Russian Federation since the late 18th to early 19th century," Raksha wrote on his Telegram channel.

The less manpower Russia has for its military, the safer the world will be. That part of this makes me very happy, especially considering the drop sounds like it could be fairly rapid.
