Rusnano's aim is to create own nanotechnology industry into Russia. Matter is very important to Russia and Rusnano has been grated a lot of money, 8 MILLIARD EUROS say Finnish source. To be raised or destroyed - none of my business really.

Kauppalehti, Monday April 30th in 2012, page 4 and 5, title ”Tsubais houkuttelee high tech -yrityksiä Venäjälle” [Tsubais allure High-Tech -Companies into Russia]

Summary of the article

Rusnano (Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies) has been formed in 2007 and is fully owned by Russia State. Rusnano's aim is to create own nanotechnology industry into Russia. Matter is very important to Russia and Rusnano has been grated a lot of money, 8 MILLIARD EUROS say Finnish source. Rusnano BOUGHT earlier on April 40% shareholding of an Vantaa based Company Beneq Oy, which is a leading company in nano surface technologies. Rusnano has also invested into USA Corporations.

Head of Capital Investment Corporation Rusnano Anatoli Tsubais promises to smooth Finnish Companies way to Russia. ”We know how to solve problems and avoid them”. Russia economy fixed star Anatoli Tsubais has got a special offer to Finnish High-Tech Companies. Head of Capital Capital Investment Corporation Rusnano is asking Finnish know-how experts into a Russia trip and offers to their customers Russian Governent Corporations and other heavy series Business Colossiums.
”We know how to contact and make deals with Gazprom, Government Railroads, Heavy Industry, Ship Construction, Telecommunications, Government Corporations and Ministries. We know how to solve problems and avoid them.”

Russia is keen on minor shareholding on Finnish Businesses. Russia's own High-Technology leap never really took place. Tsubais represents the whole technology field. He reveals that owning Finnish Companies is put under high interest in Russia at the moment. ”We are interested in investing. We do not attempt to full ownership, order or control. We are interested in, let us say, ten (10%) or twenty five (25%) percent shareholding in a developing and good Finnish Companies...”

To be raised or destroyed - none of my business really.

Some political question to be considered (in a good spirit):

1. Russia considers, or at least Mr Putin’s statements can be understood in such a way, that it is no other nation’s matter to Russia to make decisions on ex-Soviet colonies, and according to Mr Putin’s statement it is very important no other nation will prevent Russia to re-occupy these independent nations. Does this mean Putin has already declared a war or does it mean a new period of a cold war began?

2. Finnish newspaper Ilta-Sanomat wrote on October 3rd 2008 in article “Russia textbook/school book defend Stalin’s ideological purification // Venäläinen oppikirja puolustaa Stalinin puhdistuksia” that Stalin was sane man as he let kill / killed 15-20 million people between years 1929-1939. Article is referring to a educational book meant to be used in history education. Western ideology disagrees on claims on Stalin, how do you explain this? Would a better alternative to killing for people thinking differently be letting them to travel in some other nation? What is Putin’s opinion about the latter option? What was the reason for forgetting the Winter War between Russia and Finland from Russia books (?)?

3. Finnish Secret Police is based on Russia’s Secret Police. Since Finnish researchers were allowed access to seek KGB archives, why is not possible to run independent research on Finnish Secret police and their archives, and can Putin convince Russia has not wished Finnish Secret Police not to be put under investigations (as even KGB, FSB, FBI, MI, CIA and the rest of them have made mistakes why not Finnish Security Police as well?

4. Russia and Soviet Union has been and still is a remarkable trade companion to Finland. We have long industrial and trade traditions, as Russians have either established or assisted to construct some factories in Finland. How do you explain Finnish people the tactical business run by Russia (in telecommunication, oil industry – gas and oil, land and real estate property)?

5. If Russia law say its citizen must co-operate with FSB leading into a situation possibly person working on both private sector abroad and to FSB, would this harm your national image and is your national law conflicting international laws?

6. Would it really matter either one, Finnish Army or Russia Army (or any other Army Intelligence) would take part into intelligence cases were ‘imaginary’ from either nation some government officials would have been caught violation their own law in national extent (to force the national law act according to the nation were the violation would exist)?

7. What is Putin's opinion on Karelia if it were build a new trade zone solving out Russia tourism while mainly stopping to Karelia, some Karelians able to move and purchase their property or similar back to themselves, Russia Generals not over riding trade zone with tanks, and transit from both Finland and Russia travels into Karelia Trade Zone? This alternative possibly increases tourism on both sides. I believe this would solve out and end most of Karelia discussion as land (usually) can overtaken only via wars.

8. Why Russia wants to present their nation as a modern western capitalist nation but at the same time gives negative statements on USA (e.g. ref.: HS 3.8.2011 A16 "Putin: USA on talouden loinen")? Reason for asking this Turku Appeals prevented publishing a book on Russia Business Ethics having bribe sums... as both sides have more or less similar problems... why not to co-operate in stead of (cold) war?

9. Why Russia does not explain in more detail their aims on image building abroad as we know it is one of the leading nations on media manipulation and (on my mind) some image building were 'far beyond western standards'; Putin is in a great physical and mental shape, and the photographs and stories given to foreign press are superp, however sometimes one may get a feeling the whole storyboard serves certain purpose, specially when combined to the warlike statement on overtaking ex-colonies. If this is a national habit, should it not be told (like you did at least in one of the cases) a better way? Naturally Putin's image is serving a good macho image to Russia youth and men, but it may be taken too literally in west when combined to warlike statements? (HS 3.8.2011 A12)

10. When high-technology States co-operate or export know-how into Russia do they at the same time support Russia to defeat themselves?

11. It is something considered self-evident in keeping and maintaing power and order not suitable to everyone, specially in a nation undergoing some conservative reforms, but how does Russia reassure its inhabitants and foreign nations of Russia’s officials motives pure and not an other overtaking; as some nation or nations may (or may not) collapse, someone need to maintain order on globe or anarchy wins.

12. If Russia would need to choose between independent or NATO oriented Finland, which would you prefer, and would it harm if we were to build your defense against both (by using both sides military technology plus our own)?

13. Does is have any effect to foreign policy who is Finland's President and what kind of changes would be made according to which president?

14. What are Mr Putin's three favor blini filling?

15. Why do you use military ranking on government posts?
