As U.S. President Donald Trump and Russia’s Vladimir Putin met in Helsinki on Monday, thousands of Finns took to the streets.
More than 2,000 people marched in the Finnish capital a day before the meeting, holding a banner that read “Helsinki calling for human rights.” The country’s biggest newspaper, Helsingin Sanomat, had arranged for the words “Mr. President, welcome to the land of the free press” to be displayed across the outside of the main airport, in English and Russian.
