Russia has warned Sweden and Finland through bilateral diplomatic channels about consequences of NATO membershipRussian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday.
“They [η Σουηδία και η Φινλανδία] they know, they will not be surprised at anything, they were informed about everything, where it will leadSaid the Russian official.
“We have announced all our warnings both publicly and through bilateral channels,” Zakharova told Russia-24 television.
The Finnish parliament is debating today whether to seek NATO membership following Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine.
It is noted that the support of Finnish citizens in the prospect of integration, which previously did not exceed 20 to 25%, has reached 70%, while in Parliament there is now a clear majority.
Despite the warning of Russia for installation nuclear weapons in the Baltic region If Finland and neighboring Sweden join the military alliance, Finnish Prime Minister Sana Marin said last week that the decision to apply for membership in the Northeast Alliance would be made very quickly, “not in months, but in weeks”.
