Finnish- Americans edit
I don't know if these are the same people I have in mind: there was a large group of Americans, workers mostly, I guess, from Finnland (immigrants or children from finnish families), who emigrated to Russia in the 1930's. They were robbed blind by the Soviets and then denied return to the U.S. by american diplomats. "You made your bed,...". I can't remember, where I read their story, but it was a serious source. --Ralfdetlef (talk) 10:00, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
