“Finland must apply for NATO membership without delay,” President Sauli Niinisto and Prime Minister Sanna Marin said in a joint statement. “We hope that the national steps still needed to make this decision will be taken rapidly within the next few days.”
Asked whether Finland’s accession posed a direct threat to Russia, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said: “Definitely. NATO expansion does not make our continent more stable and secure.
It is unfortunate, and I agree. If there was a time for China to attack, this would be it. I feel they will take advantage of situation in Ukraine combined with the current weak US leadership. I would hope the US would defend Taiwan, but not sure if there is anyone in charge right now that has the testicular fortitude to do so.
There is an outlet, but the odds of gear to use are most likely zero. Also, go where if you do make it out? Mill is surrounded. Outlets usually have some heavy grating guarding them too.
I wouldn’t go to the water…risk getting shot by both sides…small inflatables and semi rigid hulls may look like a special forces team attempting a landing.
However, there has to be some form of utility trunk underground that leads off site somewhere…gas, steam, electrical…something big enough to crawl through at least…
They never should have given up the Q-bombs in return for our useless promise that their sovereignty would be protected. The US political leadership has a long-standing history of ignoring such commitments. But they seem to be doing fine anyway.
They dont give a flyingh F%$k about their own its all about prestige on the international front, thats for all current ruling groups no matter the nation. they need to be reminded they work for us not the other way round. How much baby formula or easing of gas prices could that provide on the home front?
“Needy” Ex-Russians versus “Commie” Russians? Who the f’ cares? Let them settle this on their own… the US needs to stop virtual signaling. Isn’t this the same country that hired Hunter Biden to gain clout with the current administration? Talk about collusion. I stopped caring about the Ukraine when the MSM and all our glorious celebrities jumped on the bandwagon.
And since the MSM, libs, and “celebrities” are soooooo woke now… we will probably now start paying billions of dollars to the Russians to make sure those marginalized Ukrainian prisoners have free health care, student loan forgiveness, a free crack pipe, a paid party membership in the DNC, and an iPhone.
