That's all fantasy scenario for a military games or scary movie, it doesn't have any real possibility, it didn't even happen in cold war time with much more powerful at the time USSR. Russia just can't start large scale

I was referring to the fact, that lately I was hearing a lot of things specifically about Sweden being afraid and even returning conscription (that awful atavism of the past) because of that. I don't know about situation in Finland, bu

Yeah, nice scenario for a game or scary movie, but has 0 potential in reality. Russia - NATO war? Really? And you want to spend huge amount of money and return conscription in Sweden to protect from this? Maybe Europe should also spend bill
