Transcript:
Why is Finland not blamed for partnering with Germans in WW2.
First let's take a look at some history. Finland gained its independence from the Russian Empire in 1917 and these were its borders. However at the start of WW2 the USSR decided to invade Finland in order to retake the entire nation.
This is the reason why Finland sought German assistance to defeat the Soviets.
You see Germany is blamed because it was attacking everyone, while Finland was simply fighting the invaders.

Correction: the ussr only invaded Finland in 1939 because Leningrad, which was the second most populated city of the ussr) was close to the Finnish border, so the ussr attempted to attack Finland so that they can secure land around the Finnish border; when this somewhat backfired, Finland seceded land around Leningrad to the Soviet Union in a peace treaty in March 1940; so TLDR the ussr only invaded Finland not to occupy them but to protect Leningrad

At the end of ww2, Finland switched sides when they lost to the soviets and after seeing the Germans losing.

Didn't Finland fight Germany at one point though? When Germany had taken over Norway?

Yes and no, the fins did defend themselves against the Soviets in the winter war. But the fins attacked the Soviets during operation Barbarossa, called the continuation war.

Well in fact the soviets (however evil they were) did not want all of Finland but the areas near st Petersburg.

Actually, the Soviets wanted to protect leningrad from Germany, so they asked Finland for some land, and in return, the soviets would give Finland more land up north. The Finns refuser, and the soviets invaded
