Threats are being made against Russian diplomats in Finland.
Calls to damage vehicles belonging to employees of Russian diplomatic missions have become increasingly common.
The embassy in Helsinki shared this information on its Telegram channel.
It is specified that the reaction from diplomats was caused by a publication on the social network X.
On October 4, one of the leading employees of the Finnish Institute of Foreign Affairs, Salonius-Pasternak, made a bold proposal to damage cars belonging to Russian diplomatic staff.
It is noted that this is not the first time that such threats have been made against Russian diplomats, but the current situation goes beyond all bounds of what is acceptable.
In particular, Salonius-Pasternak called for pouring paint on and damaging Russian cars using construction equipment.
The situation is aggravated by the fact that the Helsinki Institute of International Affairs is one of the leading organizations supervised by the country's Foreign Ministry.
The diplomatic department expressed hope that such cases will not be repeated and that Finland will think about the consequences that anti-Russian hysteria could cause.
