Looks like a clear threat to FinlandFinland Joining NATO Means 'Destruction of Their Country': Russian Lawmaker
On Tuesday, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said that Finland, along with its neighbor Sweden, would be "welcome" to join the alliance.www.newsweek.com
This is from today.
Vladimir Dzhabarov from Russia's upper house, the Federation Council, said that any move by Helsinki to join NATO would be a "strategic mistake."
He said that Finland had developed close ties with Russia but NATO membership would mean "it would become a target."
However, he said that it was unlikely that "the Finns themselves will sign a card for the destruction of their country," in comments reported on Wednesday by Russian state-owned domestic news agency RIA Novosti.
Ah ok, not quite what I thought you meant. I don’t think they’re going to rush to join NATO without thinking hard.Finland Joining NATO Means 'Destruction of Their Country': Russian Lawmaker

I'd love to know his justification for that. He is acting out his fantasy as an old man, the sad t*sser.Reports circulating that Putin is threatening Finland
The Russians apparently believe that Finland attacked them in the WW2
That would probably work but it would take quite some time to implement, but I hope the western world are or will be looking at this action.Full embargo on oil could stop war - ex-Putin aide
President Putin's former chief economic adviser tells the BBC Western countries could stop the war.www.bbc.co.uk
A "real embargo" on Russian energy by Western countries could stop war in Ukraine, President Putin's former chief economic adviser has suggested.
Dr Andrei Illarionov said Russia "did not take seriously" other countries' threats to reduce their energy usage.
Despite trying to reduce its reliance on Russian sources, Europe is continuing to buy oil and gas.
Last year, soaring prices meant oil and gas revenues accounted for 36% of Russia's government spending.
Much of that income comes from the European Union, which imports about 40% of its gas and 27% of its oil from Russia.
This week, its top diplomat Josep Borrell said "a billion [euros] is what we pay Putin every day for the energy he supplies us".
Dr Illarionov said if Western countries "would try to implement a real embargo on oil and gas exports from Russia... I would bet that probably within a month or two, Russian military operations in Ukraine, probably will be ceased, will be stopped".
"It's one of the very effective instruments still in the possession of the Western countries," he added.
Mentioned on GMB news. Absolutely disgraceful.
Haven't a clue if fake or true.
If this is true we are on the precipice of the most dangerous moment in history so far.
