Yeah... I really hope it doesn't come to it but it seems more likely by the day that the war will come to Finland and the Baltics.

Take care. I hope you can stay safe.

If they attack us and our allies just choose to do nothing. It's not just us who are not safe, I hope people in Europe understand that. We have pretty good military, maybe other European countries need to start asking themselves do you also, if everyone is on their own.

Oh yeah. I'm actually disappointed by the seemingly lack of alarm here. I kind of get it given how we are far away and have long had peace but it's really unfair given the threat in the east.

Though I also sometimes wonder if people here don't want to see it. Makes it mentally easier...

We have raise reservist age limit to 65, we are building border fence along its eastern border with russia. Us getting in NATO, constantly trying to improve our defence capabilities, training. It's not just landmines, you need to understand the bigger picture. For us russia is serious threat.
