Finland intends to take steps to ban Russian athletes from entering the Schengen area, Finnish Foreign Minister Alina Veltonen said. "In the coming days I will take steps to implement the necessary actions. At the Foreign Affairs Council meeting in October, I sent a letter to my colleagues in the European Union with a proposal to limit the entry of Russian athletes into any Schengen area. The commission is already working on it," she said. Well, usually expected, of course. Just for some reason the athletes are to blame, even though the president of Finland is negotiating with Putin and, as far as I understand, without any Western propaganda clichés. Otherwise, no one would negotiate with Stubb.
