Russia did not fare to well in their last war with Finland XipeTotex.
And the Swedish air-force will be a welcomed boon to an already vastly superior NATO combined air power.
As to the Finnish Defense Forces, active military personnel is a modest 23,000, but the country boasts a wartime strength of 280,000 if they implement conscription.
And what do you imagine gets mounted on their borders once NATO reinforces the nations?
Do you really think Russia can defend against a border twice the size it was before Finland and Sweden join NATO whilst fighting in Ukraine?
Because if you do you really should realize Russia are not the Warsaw pact nor anything reminiscent of such, in a conventional war combined NATO forces would wipe the floor with them sharpish and in no time flat.

The usual group will be sure to come by and tell you she deserved to die for invading Ukraine, Or they will say it is Russian propaganda. They may even claim that Russia did it.
And the usual group who seem to support Russia invading a soverign state, who believe all the tripe Russian media shovel as news have already started posting.
Things like this shelling wouldn't have happened if Mad Vlad had keep his troops in his own damn country, so that poor girls blood is on his hands too.
The last time i checked Donbas was part of Ukraine and wasn't Russian.

every child, every person, every hospital, every apartment block, every shopping mall, is blood on the hands of KaPutin.
When he surrenders or dies. The problem will begin to resolve.
At the moment it appears he is figuring to escalate.
I wish the same for his cancer and Parkinson’s.

The Russia lost approximately 200,000 men and had 600,000 wounded.
They got there arses handed to them in the snow by Finland comparatively speaking. LoL
If you don't realise a new border twice the size with NATO will be the end of Russia you really don't understand exactly what it entails or is going on.

Adding poor reading comprehension to your faults.
I never called you a liberal just a supporter of the liberal world order.
You and those like you can stuff your liberal world order
Ukraine has been bombing Donetsk civilian centers. There is no abvancing force there. There is no military presence there aside from their EOD that dissarms unexploded ordinance fired at unarmed civilians every day. They are not targeting the military. They are targeting civilians, fire stations, bus terminals, universities, apartment buildings, kindergartens, high schools, nurseries, hospitals, and residential areas but is all AOK with you because you love Ukrainian terrorists as long as they work for the west and the liberal world order.
Here is a question for you. When NATO destroyed the sovereign nation of Lybia what were you doing? How about the sovereign nation of Iraq? Why are we supporting terrorists in the sovereign nation of Syria or supplying weapons to Saudi as they bomb the sovereign nation of Yemen?.........
Was Vietnam a sovereign nation how about Serbia? I think they were.
Strange how the countries you have named here were/are controlled mostly by dictators?
It does not matter, Russia has the meat.
Finland lost, had to pay up, and lost land and a prosperous future.
Nato borders are speculation at this point. The history is fact.
Lol for you too sir.
