not better - , finland is finland , sweden is sweden, Ukraine is Russia If Russia is attacked by sweden or finland there won't be hesitation to make nuclear wasteland from both of them Ukraine is Russia so all liberated territories are rebuilt with meteoric speed
Your argument was Russia would not accept such a threat(NATO) on its borders.Finland and Sweden in NATO is the same threat as a Ukraine NATO,they are actually a bigger threat as they have more strategic value to NATO than Ukraine being so close to St Petersberg and The Zapadnaya Litsa, Rybachiyand Gadzhievo naval nuclear submarine bases.
finland is in deep recession since war started and they don't get hundreds of billions ukraine gets they can't survive without russian resources. hey could be nationalistic as hell but russia never threatened finland since ww2 ended despite finns directly responsible for 1 millions+ deaths in leningrad and those - if ukraine falls you're next - just stupid - ukraine is russia, there are no other countries in the world other than russia and ukraine which is russia russophobic government will be voted out soon. they will be like turkey - nominal nato member - russian good business partner
Finland (and Sweden) is NATO,which you previously claimed Russia wouldn't allow such threats on its border.Finland has an advanced military with over 60 F 18s and soon to be 64 F 35s in 2026.It has over 700 howitzers, 700 heavy mortars and 100 multiple rocket launchers. Finland has the largest artillery capability in western Europe.Most importantly NATO can flood Finland and Sweden with unlimited weapon systems and troops right on Russias door step if need be.Previously you said Russia wouldn't allow such a threat on its border,but they have.
Russia and its supporters thought the same about Europe not being able to survive without Russian oil.
Which is what exactly happens - they still get their oil from Russia and NG too - they just pay more for it and all Europe is in never ending recession as a result
AI overview? Common. Russia sells to India, India blends it with Kazakhstan or USA. Then Europe pays previous price + 10% to middleman They tried to fix it with price limit for Russian oil then spectacularly failed Anyway comparing to direct pipeline from Russia oil delivered by tankers already more expensive Bottomline - Russia gets their money as before, Europe pays more and still gets Russia oil
