Good, now we have some progress! So, Finland didn't like Soviet Union. But you still didn't answer the question towards whom Finland was oriented? Germany? Sweden? Britain?  ::::::::::And for the second sentence: The national emblem of Finland wasn't swastika, it was and still is a lion. Finnish air force emblem was swastika, and it was and still is visible in numerous medals and decorations in Finland (for example, the flag of president of Finland contains swastika (http://www.presidentti.fi/eng/institution/ensign.html)). And those were designed long before nazism and have nothing to do with it (http://www.ilmavoimat.fi/index_en.php?id=624).
