Helping a country on the other side of the planet provoke a elective war of aggression with your neighboring superpower country makes you way safer.
Russia’s neighbour Finland and the United States are allegedly holding talks on a Defence Cooperation Agreement (DCA) that would allow US troops to freely deploy to the newly-admitted NATO state, according to a report.
According to a Russia Today report, citing Helsingin Sanomat (HS) newspaper, Mikael Antell, who serves as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ deputy director-general for political affairs, is leading the bilateral negotiations for Finland and that the latest round of discussions took place in the Finnish capital last week.
Antell reportedly told Helsingin Sanomat (HS) newspaper that the agreement is meant to augment Finland’s current NATO membership, which it was granted in April, and to solidify the country’s deterrent and defence capabilities through US presence and advance stationing of defence equipment.
Yeah, there’s no NATO without US troops. That’s the whole thing.
“NATO” is just a proxy for US control of European forces.
“The most important thing is that the agreement enables smooth cooperation with the United States in all security situations and also at short notice,” he was quoted as saying by the newspaper.
He said that the agreement would allow for the admission and stay of US forces, the storage of supplies in advance, and potential infrastructure developments thanks to the funds provided to the Pentagon by the US congress.
I guess the good news for Finland is that any such installations would mostly be symbolic.
In the event of a real war, Finland is going to get rolled on real quick.
Finland has had really great relations with Russia for hundreds of years. Why on earth they let a literal coke slut pull them into this war is beyond imagining.
Of course, she got voted out.
But the NATO papers she signed are still valid!
