On the fence in front of the consulate building in downtown Murmansk appeared a banner that depicted two consulate staff members on a background of the Finnish flag, the NATO emblem, ammunition boxed destined for Ukraine and the text: “Goodbye Russia. Heil NATO.” One of the staff members is Lari Peltonen, the leader of the diplomatic office. He is shown with what appears to be a Nazi officer cap. A gunsight is aimed against his forehead. In addition to the poster, someone has inscribed “NATO Territory” on the street sidewalk. (…) A note on one of the biggest VK pages in the region shows photos from site and is accompanied by a number of anti-Finnish reader comments.
