Russia has summoned the Finnish ambassador in Moscow, after Finland signed a new agreement on military co-operation with the US.
Monday’s deal grants the US broad access to the area of Finland’s long border with Russia.
Moscow said it would “take necessary measures to counter the aggressive decisions of Finland and its Nato allies”.
Finland joined Nato this year in response to Russia’s Ukraine invasion.
Russian President Vladimir Putin recently accused Nato of having “dragged” Finland into the bloc, and announced the creation of a new military district near Finland’s border.
Let me guess, they’ve “summoned” the ambassador to an important meeting in a 9th floor hotel room with an ample balcony and no awnings.
If they were to defenestrate an ambassador, that would be an escalation of massive proportions. One hopes Putun knows better.
I think escalating is all Puta has left. No one would attack Russia for killing an ambassador. Everyone would grumble and complain and more sanctions would be threatened (whatever those could possibly be), but no real action would be taken by anyone. He knows that as well as we do.
The ambassador has everything to lose and nothing to gain by going to this meeting in person. The meeting cannot appease Puta in the slightest as it will certainly not result in Finland backing away from NATO membership.
This meeting can only be intended to intimidate or make an example of hthe ambassador. He and his family should have already fled to safety at this point.
