Putin threatens Finland and Sweden: “Destruction systems will be relocated”. Putin calls Sweden and Finland joining NATO “pointless” – troop relocation to the border announced.

“We had no troops there (on the Finnish border), now they will be there. There were no demolition systems there, now they are being moved there,” he explained. The message is clear: as you are to me, so am I to you. Provocations and the “hybrid threat”, as Finland calls it, are unlikely to diminish in the future.
