I think that there are not many nowadays Russian awards awarded to Finland.

From Soviet awards Order of Lenin is awarded, as you mentioned, to president Urho Kekkonen but not in seventies. It was in 1964. And then there is president J.K. Paasikivi, Order of Lenin awarded in 1954.

There are also others, but I can't remember them directly.

Also Taisto Sinisalo, the communist politician, got Order of Lenin in August 1970.

Here is a picture where you can see Kekkonen wearing his order of Lenin.
This is the first and only picture so far where I have seen any Finnish citizen actually wearing the Order of Lenin.
The picture is taken in Moscow November 1980.

Regards,
Jussi-Pekka
