俄罗斯总统普京（Vladimir
Putin）21日宣布启动“局部动员令”，徵召30万人投入乌克兰战场，消息一出。吓得大量俄罗斯民众开始出逃。欧盟国家唯一仍对俄罗斯开放的芬兰边境，当天晚上涌入大量车潮，而芬兰当局也正研议要关上这个俄罗斯前往欧盟国家仅剩的出路。
普京“局部动员令”一出，社群媒体上流传芬兰与俄罗斯边境屈米河谷区（Kymenlaakso）马上涌入大量车潮。根据路透社报导，芬兰边防警卫队22日证实，自21日晚间起，芬兰东部与俄罗斯交界的地区车流量就有加剧趋势，21日当天共有4824名俄罗斯人从东部边境进入芬兰，比前一週的3133人高出了50%以上。

芬兰边境“大逃亡”画面在推特等社群媒体上引发讨论，还有人声称现场的车龙已排至30公里长。从边境检查站的监视器画面可见，从当地时间早上9点至下午5点车流都没有减少。边防警卫队负责人皮特卡尼蒂（Matti Pitkaniitty）说明，“入境人数明显出现了不寻常的上升趋势，但相关情况现已得到控制，而且21日进入芬兰的人数其实不比週末多。”

芬兰国防部长凯科宁（Antti Kaikkonen）21日也在普京发出“局部动员令”后强调，芬兰正密切关注邻国的局势，同时也充分准备好了国内的防卫力量。芬兰政府当天表示，该国准备通过限制或阻止俄罗斯游客入境的新法，以免成为其他国家签发申根签证的过境国。至于同样与俄国相邻的挪威，北部边境一名警察指出，进入挪威的人数没有变化。

与俄罗斯接壤的欧盟国家中，仅剩芬兰对俄罗斯保持边境开放。爱沙尼亚总理卡拉斯（Kaja Kallas）17日提到：“如果有漏洞的话，漏洞就是芬兰，这个点会让旅行限制措施无法充分生效，但是这仍然比什么都不做还好，我希望他们早晚也必须这样做。”

Huge queues 30 km long in some places on the border of Russia and Finland.
These are probably those who had Z on their avatars.
