Finnish Children to Participate in Crimean Anniversary Event

On March 2023, a group of Finnish children will be participating in an event commemorating the anniversary of the Russian occupation of Crimea. The event will take place at the Arteki center in Gurzuf, where the children will hold Russian flags. The initiative is organized by an association operating in Helsinki that supports summer camps for Estonian citizens in the Russian-occupied Crimea.

Helsingin Sanomat reports that the city of Helsinki provides support for this program. The association has been running summer camps for Finnish children in the region for several years. These camps are designed to offer children an opportunity to experience Crimea, despite its status as a Russian-occupied territory.

The event on March 2023 marks a specific anniversary of the occupation, and the participation of Estonian and Finnish children highlights ongoing dynamics within the region. The association’s continued operation underscores a complex situation involving Russian control and the presence of citizens from neighboring countries. This event is being organized with the support of the city of Helsinki and involves Estonian and Finnish children.
