An earlier plan, the first to be drafted after the Second World War, was similarly most secret, and codenamed even more blandly as ”Fuel procurement.” In official exercises, Finnish forces defended the western coast and the city of Vaasa against land invasion from the south, and landings by Sweden.

My take on the Stubb, Støre, and Putin call: There should be no talks while Russia refuses to compromise. Yet since Trump insists on fake negotiations, having Stubb and Støre take the lead over Witkoff and Kushner is much better, especially as it was coordinated with Zelensky

Hence why we used to take a softer road for a time. Now, we are directly stating that we will destroy Russia if they attack us. And that statement is backed by the ability to make that sentence manifest. How? OpSec. 3/3

This means that we either have solved the problems, or are hard at work solving our long-range issues going forth. I would here like to tackle the issue from a different angle: Taking a hardline stance visavi Russia is pointless without the means to deliver upon the threat. 2/3

Problem is that everyone is judging things from the point of figures issued in 2022. We have now had 5 years of solving problems, and increasing manufacturing, but we no longer issue all the figures due to OpSec. 1/3

U.S. President Donald Trump escalated his invective against Norway, calling it a "s*it house country" and saying Norwegian immigrants are not welcome in the United States because the Nobel committee, based in the capital Oslo, has not awarded him a Peace Prize.

Russia is gearing up towards open hostility with EU. When that happens we will respond kinetically. Our response will not be symmetric, and not a tit-for-tat. If they cross a border, there will not be a Russia afterwards. 2/2

The why of Russia doing those things is not something that I can discuss in detail, since that would also implicate what we are specifically gearing up to do in our response to them. I can only say this: 1/2

He destroyed his country, maybe they want him to destroy the UN as well?
