  1. Nothing new in preparing. Bomb shelters have been build at least since 1960s. Also there is a law that requires everyone to have some food etc. to survive some power outages and that kind of stuff.

    Also many houses have more than one heating system. Also helps to fight against electricity bills to have two systems.

  2. Finland has been preparing to defend itself from a Russian invasion for the last 80 years. Nothing new to see here.

  3. Happy to see that people internationally are interested in my homeland :⁾

  4. One reason Putin attacked into Ukraine is because UK, France and Germany are wimps who have got rid of conscription and all other kinds of abilities to fight wars unlike Finland.

  5. Nothing new. We have been preparing for a russian invasion since the continuation war, and quite literally our militarys only purpose is to defend against a russian invasion. In every training scenario our military has, the enemy is always advancing from the east. The enemy is always little green men. All the training on recognizing vehicle types etc. is done on russian equipment and vehicles, and obviously our own. Its always a simulated t-series tank or bmp that we have to defeat in exercises. We dont have to train on how to defeat an abrams tank for example, because we will never have to do that. We dont have to prepare for a swedish invasion, because that will never happen. Russia is quite literally the only threat to Finlands existance

    Half of our nations existance is preparing to defend against a russian invasion. Thats just the harsh reality

  6. There is no point giving any credence to anything that Dmitry Medvedev says. Man is utterly irrelevant.
