The Kremlin warned last week that Finland’s entry into NATO would “greatly worsen the situation” and emphasized that Moscow is “forced to adopt tactical and strategic countermeasures” before what he defines as the “intrusion” of the Atlantic Alliance into his security. The spokesman of the Russian presidency, Dimitri Peskov, emphasized that NATO is a “hostile structure” towards Russia, although he pointed out, according to Europa Press, that “the situation in Ukraine is quite different from that in Finland, so a comparison is not possible.”
Finland officially applied for NATO membership in May 2022, along with Sweden, in an unprecedented reversal of its policy of neutrality in direct response to the growing threat posed by Russia’s expansionist activities in Ukraine. Not surprisingly, Finland shares more than 1,300 kilometers of border with Russia.
