The Fins were labeled to be on the axis side because they helped the Germans when they invaded the USSR. I think to make Stalin happy, the allies had to punish Finland in the end so they can get some cooperation from the Soviets during the war. It's one of the many ironies of WW2, like Poland not being free after WW2 even though its invasion started the war.
