Finns originated from Finno-Ugric, Russia's Ural peoples. " The original home of the Finno-Ugric peoples is generally believed to be west of the Ural Mountains, in the area of Udmurtia, Perm, Mordva and Mari-El. By 3000 BC, the Baltic-Finnic groups had migrated west to the shores of the Baltic Sea."

The part of Russia called Karelia is Nordic, and most of the population is of Scandinavian (specifically Finnish) ancestry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karelia Most of the population of "European Russia" (west of the Urals) is Slavic. Some of the Russian population close to the Baltic is Turkic.
