Finnish border guards have closed the main checkpoints on the border with Russia – Vaalimaa, Nuijamaa, Niirala and Imatra. The barriers were put up, the barriers were closed. No one else will pass.
There have been a lot of cars at the border in recent hours. The last buses were driving, local cars were rushing to their homeland, and refugees with bicycles were breaking through.
As the Finnish media and readers of Fontanka write, a huge group of dozens of cyclists arrived at the Nuijamaa crossing (Brusnichnoe international checkpoint). They were escorted by the Finns themselves along a special corridor. This was caught on video.

On the other hand, at the Vaalimaa border checkpoint (Torfyanovka checkpoint), the situation was very calm. Not a single cyclist arrived there.
The main thing about the closure of the Finnish border is why it was closed, what will happen to the buses, and when it will end, read the analysis of Fontanka.
Read about the thoughts with which the passengers of the last bus to Finland left. And here’s how the Finns have collected thousands of signatures on a petition to cancel the closure of the border with Russia and are preparing for rallies.
