Finland reacted negatively to NATO’s Christmas message because the alliance did not know exactly where Frost Claus and Joulupukki, the Finnish equivalent of Santa Claus, live. A Finnish newspaper reports this Iltalehti.
“NATO’s rude statement about Santa Claus shocked the Finns… According to the NATO military association, the famous old man in red or Santa Claus does not live in Korvatunturi,” the publication said.
The alliance had previously published Christmas greetings to Finland in video format on social networks. In the congratulatory video, soldiers check the driver’s license of Finnish Santa Claus, who states that Joulupukki’s place of residence is the North Pole, and that the driver’s license itself was issued in the North Pole.
However, according to Finnish beliefs, Joulupukki lives in Lapland, in Korvatunturi, and in the USA, children are told that Santa Claus lives in the North Pole.
The publication writes that the video released by NATO caused comments and jokes among the Finns.
