      Why it’s always the Europe that should take these people in?

    3. kuledihabe4976 on

      based Finland. They should go to other muslim countries in their vicinity, not to some distant country with no links to them.

    5. shdo0365 on

      I find it strange how people are always up to help Palestinians when it involves bashing Israel, but when it is to actually help Palestinians, crickets.

    6. ProtonSerapis on

      Maybe one of the many death to the Jews chanting countries in the region can help out the Gazan’s.

      This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://yle.fi/a/74-20112754) reduced by 77%. (I’m a bot)

      > Finland does not plan to accept any patients from Gaza, despite a request from the European Commission for member states to offer medical help to people severely wounded in the war-torn region.

      > Of the 27 member states, so far just seven EU countries have announced that they will accept patients from Gaza – Spain, Belgium, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Romania and Slovakia.

      > The Swedish government's policy has attracted widespread criticism, with Dagens Nyheter also reporting that the Karolinska University Hospital and the healthcare company Aleris have both offered to accept patients from Gaza.

      Why would they want to send their critically ill patients to a geographically distanced country instead of their neighbors? Just curious.

    9. The_boybob on

      Funny / weird thing is that Israel usually treats them. Sinwar’s sister had her baby a few months back in Israeli hospital.

    11. Agressive-toothbrush on

      Finland has a population of 5.5 million and unlike Norway, it does not have vast oil & gas fields.

      There are 16 other countries in the EU which have a larger population and bigger economy than Finland.

    12. brainsizeofplanet on

      Why not ask their supporting BRICS countries to take care of them? – those are their lies supporting Palestine

    15. ManlyEmbrace on

      It happens Palestinians have ludicrously wealthy neighbors that proclaim to be extremely sympathetic to their cause. No need to send them so far.

    16. 270whatsup on

      Shitty situation but no country should be burdened, why are the neighboring arab countries not taking them in? Hmmm

    18. Ameeba37 on

      >However, the Finnish Ministry of Social Affairs and Health said a decision has been made not to take in any patients from Gaza because “Finland does not have the necessary resources to respond to the patient evacuation requests”.

      >The ministry added that, with limited resources, “Finland has decided to prioritise assistance to Ukraine with regard to patient evacuations.”

    19. StupidStoneKid on

      Send them to Qatar? Why Europe? Why do we have to bend our knees to these people, that not even their neighbors want.

    20. MehImages on

      does it really make sense to transport critically ill patients 3’500km for treatment?
      seems like an interesting choice.
      would take a while in an ambulance

    21. DaisyCutter312 on

      Good for you Finland….you’ve been paying attention to the past 20 years.

    22. Blue_foot on

      Iran should take them.

      They are the cause for Mideast violence today.

      Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, they are behind them all. Edit: Syria too!

    23. elparque on

      Send them to a Muslim country. They’re the ones supporting Hamas and goading the Palestinians into supporting terrorism.

    24. milktanksadmirer on

      Aren’t Egypt, Iran, Turkey etc closer to Gaza ?

      Why cross seas and send the patients to Finland ?

      Good decision by Finland

    26. simplemav on

      Why not Iran, Qatar, UAE and Saudi Arabia? Egypt and Lebanon are closer.

    27. jackishere on

      bruh have Iran or the saudis take them. I’m sure their facilities are great. Why would they want white doctors taking care of them? hmmmm

    28. ReplicantGazer on

      Why would we (EU) accept terrorists, people supporting hamas (that is essentially palestinian gov) going to their enemies allies (israel).

      It would be equivalent to China taking in Ukrainian refugees. It doesnt make sense in any way.

    29. Gravity_flip on

      Because most other countries don’t actually want to help the the palestinians, they just want an excuse to dump on Israel.

    30. ParacelsusTBvH on

      I can’t imagine why Finland would prioritize treating Ukrainians, injured fighting Russia’s attempt to annex a nearby country.

      It’s not like Finland and Russia have history or anything.

    31. AtomWorker on

      I like how these articles always feature photos of women and children to tug at the heartstrings but according to the article itself only 1% of the 9k the WHO wants to send abroad are kids.

    32. Fun-Imagination3494 on

      Plenty of neighboring ARAB COUNTRIES they could be going to.

    33. VanVetiver on

      Wow, this comment section is a breath of fresh air and not what I expected at all. Gives me a little more hope for the future.

    34. NATO_CAPITALIST on

      So the oil rich in billions surrounding ME countries are only strong on supporting Palestinians verbally and for internal populist reason and not via tangible real world actions?

    35. MajorRedacted on

      Not being obnoxious here but that’s Finland’s right to refuse.

      Surely they’d be better placed moving them to a neighboring nations instead of them having to travel vast distances to a country, where frankly, they’d be completely lost with the language for a start.

    36. Open-Evidence-6536 on

      When you have rich countries like uae, Saudi, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain at the doorstep , why go for such a long distance?

    37. hwsrjr3 on

      Im sure Saudi Arabia or Egypt or maybe even fucking Iran, the country that is willing to let missiles fly over the Palestine conflict, surely they would accept them, right

      Right?

      Jordan accepts more than most and yet they had Black September, though Finland is definitely the one who needs to bear the brunt of this, 100%

      Nevermind the fact that the reason a lot of European countries have a counter-terrorism force is pretty much because of the acts of the BSO (Black September Organization, a Palestinian led terrorist organization which perpetrated attacks in not only Europe but also the middle east. Notably killing members of the Israeli Olympic Team and the Prime Minister of Jordan, really wonderful fellows)

    38. Agamen0n on

      Having all those rich countries all around and none can take them? hy always the EU?

    41. Lololover09 on

      Why can’t the Arab govts accept them? UAE. Saudi Arabia and Egypt could just as well treat them.
