Russia is expanding its military infrastructure near the border with Finland, in what NATO officials describe as the early stages of a long-term buildup, The New York Times reported Monday.
This is one of the least informed articles I’ve ever read. Phrases like “From Moscow’s perspective, the Russians need to bolster their defenses to protect themselves from NATO expansion” is just a cherry on top.
Lmao.
Why? That is the stance Russia has been communicating for years.
And when countries like Germany turn around and say they want the strongest army in Europe and support the idea of spending 200 Billion yearly on defense, that is perceived as a threat.
Because they don’t care about NATO nor they fear any kind of invasion they’ve left borders with with countries in NATO empty for three years. Germany is in their right to spend however they want. r*ssia delenda est
Again, this is the stance of Russia, as the NYT reported. Doesnt mean its true. But if the media would only report if politicians say true things, well the news would be rather short.

NATO expansion? 😂
If Russia hadn’t threatened Sweden and Finland, neither would have dropped neutrality and joined NATO.

It is classical security dilemma.

This is a flimsy pretext that nobody believes, including the Russians.
