I think Sweden gets into NATO. I don't think Finland will be allowed to join - Russia will be raising a stink.

[Russki]

I think Sweden gets into NATO

No it doesn't.

[ixulescu]

No it doesn't.

Many decision makers in Sweden and Finland hold innocent ideas like the impression that they can enter NATO at any time, particularly when shit hits fan. That's not how NATO works.

They might learn something from Ukraine's situation, but then again, they might not.

Russia takes half of Ukraine (east of the river) and links parts of southern Ukraine with Transitria and takes it as well to themselves.

There will be a meeting based on common interests between Russia and the West that will outweigh the differences that exist.

If there is not a bloody war, Biden will market this as a great victory on his part, and Putin will be further demonized regardless. Sickening.
If there is a bloody war, Biden will claim he did everything he could to stop it but Putin is just all too Evil. Repulsive.

Russia wants to transform again the former Warsaw pact countries into a buffer zone. This request is simple inane - there's nothing to discuss.
