I'm with you there, June. It's definitely a sobering topic for a morning watch—do you think a diplomatic solution is still realistic?

I'm with you, June. It reminds me of how Cold War tensions always seemed to linger just beneath the surface, even when things felt calm.

That's a heavy thought to start the day with, Gary. Let's hope we can find a path where those theories stay exactly that—just theories.

Perkele!

Nice information. Love from India !
@
To put it simply, if you feel Russia has a weak point, then go ahead and attack it (as NATO does)... those NATO countries will be wiped off the face of the earth by Russia... don't talk nonsense about Russia's strategic weapons.👆👆🤡🤔🤔🤣🤣🤣
@
We all know that nobody wins and survives a nuclear war. The radiation and fall out is for everyone, regardless the outcome.

Because they don't like terrorists on their doorstep, and Pukein IS one.
@
Time for Finland to take back the territories captured by Soviet Russia?
@
This is what is called deterrence 😊
@
It seems you don't know how powerful those Russian missiles are
@
14:00 Finland 100% would defend it's Baltic Allies.
They understand very well that they would be next in line, should they fall to Russia.
@
Or Finland can have economic trade with Russia to benefit both.
@
Here a lot of young people is commenting that he will fight with russian broh you all are 33 but still you can't defeat alone russia😂😂

Ezekiel Ch 39:6 The Holy Bible Teaches The Russian Alliance is about to be Set on Fire 🔥 & Revelations Ch 17:18 Teaches Europe is going to See There going to Need America 🇺🇸 & Daniel Ch 11:30 Teaches Were All going to See Prophecy Come True & Europe Stand With America 🇺🇸 even after a brief fight over Iran 🇮🇷 & I Believe & God Bless Germany 🇩🇪

Infesting news item, but the presentation is decidedly mediocre due to the sensory overload. Too many fragments too quickly, weird soundtrack. It is geopolitics, not a trailer for a thriller,
@
German here - former officer of the army: I dont care what my goverment does. If russia invades the baltics or finnland, i fight.

And i know many that think the same way. But in the end, talk is cheap. Start helping today, for example via drone aid ^^
@
next target for Ukraine
@
They are tough because accidentally parachute into waters? Where did you get this clown?
@
Ukraine could do it instead.
@
Everyone who does not listen to Putin and Russia not just Finland…. Because it is all about controlling the world. And that a good indication that politically everyone already under Putin control.

Democracy is now only in the book and by words not by action yet everyone just wants to wake up, not get up to get things done…. Don’t blame future generation when you get old and watch back to them, all are your result of today leadership… accept the truth…
@
How could Russia do any of this? They are barely holding on to territory in Ukraine as it is.
@
You obviously mix up Finland with Norway.... Finland doesn't have any ships in the artic north Atlantic

By the time these media houses are done with creating fear towards russia, we'll be thinking they're putting nuclear bombs in vodka
@
Well done Finland... you volunteered yourself for getting wiped out first during Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD)
@
Just one missile and Finland is gone 😋 and don't forget that Finns army is tiny.
@
Hope the border never opens. 🇫🇮🇪🇺
