Task: Question Generation
Input (English): Context: Finns provided Russians with a variety of manufactured items -- it is n't clear how the prices were determined . No money was actually supposed to change hands . At the end of the period , when the Soviet Union collapsed , it turned out that the Soviets owed quite a lot to the Finns ; Russia has now paid off the debt . The obvious conjecture , given the reparations , the relative strength of the two countries , and their previous history , is that the trade was a form of disguised tribute , that the Finns were paying off the Russians not to attack them . Several people in the conversation , however , who claimed to be familiar with the facts -- Finns and an American long resident in Finland -- claimed that it was the other way around .
Output (English): Why is the relationship between Finland and Russia unequal ?
