Finland set to join NATO

[Battlion25]

Finland is an EU member which already gives it security. Attacking Finland is attacking EU which would mean Russia would be destroyed on all fronts.

There is no defensive pact in EU bro. Finland is outside of NATO this could trigger a Russian response as soon as within next week.. I kid you not bro and this is a real possibility

This could trigger major war.. I have been saying Russia will immediately invade Finland post Ukraine and now it seems like my predictions have come true. Russia could even be forced to two time Ukraine and FInland here.. Or get Kazakhstan and other allied countries to invade Finland

A 'could' is not a prediction. Anyone can use 'could' and make his argument sounds smart. I had a friend in the news business and learned a few things. Anytime there is a deadline, like a weekend, and a writer is short on material, he can just trot out a quasi 'news' article filled with 'could', 'possibly', or 'potential'. Done.

Even if Finland's petition for NATO membership is under review, any military action by Russia WILL trigger a unified NATO/Europe response as if Finland is an official member. And this time, with lessons learned from Ukraine, that response will be military, not just economic and political. Then given the sorry performance of the Russian military in Ukraine, NATO air forces will first remove the VKS from the sky, then support NATO ground forces to remove the Russian Army from anywhere Russia is not wanted.

Your 'could' is no more credible than mine.

Honestly will NATO fight for Finland I doubt it brother because if they wanted to fight they would have fought for Ukraine but instead they watched citing this is not NATO member hence Finland is on that same boat..

Here already today this news has reached Russia and the reply to it is chilling and quite expected as I predicted...

Finland will be asking for 'the destruction of their country' if they join NATO and make themselves a Russian 'target', Moscow lawmaker warns​

• Vladimir Dzhabarov said Finland joining NATO would be a 'terrible tragedy'
• The senator warned it is a 'strategic mistake' to join the military alliance
• Finnish foreign minister today said it will clarify its position on NATO in weeks

A Russian lawmaker has warned Finland it faces serious repercussions if it joins NATO, saying it would make it a valid 'target' and secure the 'destruction of their country'.

Russia warns Finland will be asking for 'destruction' by joining NATO

The Nordic country has been flirting with becoming a member of the transatlantic military alliance, with foreign minister Pekka Haavisto today saying its position will soon be clarified.

Russia is going to attack Finland with what forces again?

 

[Yongpeng Sun-Tastaufen]

Lol so putin winning!

Soon sweden will join. And nato will increase its foot print in asia pacific.

If NATO expands their footprint into Asia then you can bet China + Russia sign mutual security.

I agree that Russia is stretched thin here but that doesn't mean they couldn't scrap together an army to enter Finland immediately and they could also try to talk Belarus and other allies to dispatch couple of division and enter Finland..

Please dont tell bullshit when you have no knowledge. An attack on one EU member is attack on all.

The clause in Article 42 of the 2009 Treaty requires “other EU countries to come to the support and aid, with all possible means, of a member state under armed attack

 

[Yongpeng Sun-Tastaufen]

Russia is a paper tiger. It looks tough on paper but in reality Russian people are very nice. Napoleon and Hitler invaded Russia but Russia never invade another country. Finland will not join NATO.

There is no military alliance in the EU.. This much is a known fact

 

[kingQamaR]

Finland is free to do as it pleases,if they want to join nato that is none of putins business. They are no threat to Russia just as nato is not.

If NATO expands their footprint into Asia then you can bet China + Russia sign mutual security.

Only in their dreams

 

[nang2]

Well russia is good in destroying infrastructure and killing civilians. By joining nato, thats closed

OK, so Russia is both weak and strong. I will leave you to hold diametrically opposite opinions in your head.

You don’t just scrap together an army, unless you want those forces bulldozed.

Russia has little ability at this point to conduct an offensive against Finland.

It is amusing watching you guys trying save face for Russia.

Russia is not weak in the sense that Russia cannot do damages. As we have seen in Ukraine, the Russian military can do serious damages. INITIALLY. But the Russian military is weak in the sense that it cannot hold what it INITIALLY gained, as we have seen the Russian Army retreating from Kyiv. Can Ukraine retaliate on Russian soil? Probably not. So for the next decade, Ukraine will suffer what Russian did. This is not what anyone want for his homeland. A mutual defense alliance like NATO is an excellent option for those who cannot fight on their own.

So there are no diametric opposite opinions here but only YOUR failure to understand the big picture. Yrs from now, military academies all over the world, including your China, will study the Russia-Ukraine war in lessons opposite to what you are trying to do here. Your attempt to shame us is feeble and entertaining.

No one cares lol

Good luck to winnie the poh.

And send thanks to dumb putin for doing exactly what Americans wanted him to do.

All planned by Putin

Yes smart man lol
