Opinion|Topics of the week
1) Convoy
Coronary actionsthe Convoy Finland demonstration against the high cost of petrol and the government continued throughout the week at the Helsinki Citizens’ Market, where a few dozen participants gathered around a coffee tent and from time to time set out to wave their signs in front of the Parliament House.
Convoy did not grow into a very big case in Finland. It may also be due to the fact that the coronavirus pandemic is calming down and corona restrictions are being eased. On Thursday, the government announced it would stop using the so-called emergency brake.
2) Ringed peace
Environmental organization WWF announced on Thursday that the peace of the Saimaa ringed seal has begun. During the peace of the nest, people are expected to avoid moving around Saimaa near islets and islands, as the disturbance may be detrimental to ringed mothers. The female gives birth to a snow nest carved by the project at the turn of about five kilos in February-March.
According to WWF, for the second year in a row, the snow-rich winter has guaranteed favorable nesting conditions for about 430 Saimaa ringed seals in Finland. In addition to the snowstorms, volunteers have accumulated suitable nesting kennels in the snowdrift.
3) Doping Skater
Sports the ugly side once again gave a reminder of itself when only 15-year-old Russian figure skater Kamila Valijeva was caught using a performance-enhancing trimetazidine heart medicine.
Valijeva, who has already been named the next superstar of the species, has shrunk with her amazing four-jumps. He already had time to lead the Russians to victory in the team race and was by far the overwhelming pre-favorite of the personal race to be skated next week.
Valijeva’s case is another reminder of doping, which is why the Russians are competing in the Beijing Games without national symbols, even though it is hardly noticed.
