Hi everyone! I am writing a paper about "Tuntematon Sotilas" and try to do some research about how realistic the book is. Now, quite in the beginning of the book, Risto Ryti's radio speech, in which he declared war on the USSR, is mentioned. I've been looking for the text of this speech but just couldn't find it... Does any of you have it or knows where I could get it? I'd prefer the English version but Finnish works too... Thank you very much...
If no one here pipes up you might ask over on the axis history forum. There are several rather frequent Finnish posters over there.
Let me know if you find it in English and I'll put a copy here: Treaties, Declarations, Insturments of Surrender
the Finnish version at least can be found here: The text below the footage in grey box... Presidentti Rytin puhe jatkosodan alussa | Elv arkisto | yle.fi
