FRANKFURT – Finland’s ambassador to Germany, Anne Sipilainen, is just not anxious about Russia’s threats over her nation’s transfer to affix NATO as she sees Finland as ready for any type of assault from Moscow, German newspaper Die Welt reported on Monday.
Russia has stated that it sees Finland’s and Sweden’s bids to affix NATO as a hostile transfer and that it could reply if the nations expanded army infrastructure on their territory.
“We aren't stunned. We have now heard for years that Moscow will reply with countermeasures if Finland applies for NATO membership,” Sipilainen informed Die Welt, including that she thinks the reactions from Russia have been “surprisingly delicate to date.”
“However they know that for years and a long time, we now have been very nicely ready for every kind of doable threats – not solely army, but in addition cyber hybrid assaults and knowledge operations,” Sipilainen informed the newspaper.
She added that Finland and Sweden have a really sturdy reserve military and won't solely profit from NATO‘s safety themselves, but in addition provide the organisation extra safety in Northern Europe.
