The number of Russian "tourists" it will allow to cross its borders will be greatly increased by it.

The decision to deny visas to Russian men was made because of the damage it would do to the country's reputation.

In the wake of other nations blocking Russian tourists from crossing their borders, Helsinki decided to impose restrictions on them.

There will be a war in Ukraine.

All land border crossing between Russia and Europe have been blocked due to a decision by the Finns.

The move comes as thousands of Russian men have reportedly begun fleeing the country following Russian President Putin's decree this week calling for a "partial mobilize" to funnel more men into the war in Ukraine.

NATO's chief says that PUT IN's call for Russia to have compulsory military service will require Moscow to have it.

The suggestion that anyone under the age of 18 could be forced to fight was made by Putin.

Russian men between the ages of 18 and 27 are required to serve for a year in the military.

Tech, business and state journalists will not be affected by the deployment of 300,000 men to fight in Ukraine.

Over 9000 of its troops have died in the fighting, according to the Ukrainian government.

The death toll during the war has not been verified.

Images of airports filled with fighting-age men and thousands causing traffic jams suggest that Russian citizens are unwilling to risk the statistics of fighting in Ukraine.
