FINALLY :clap3:Russia can choke!

Edited by LustSpell

Edited by Pendulum

Russia is an existential threat to European security and must be kept in check 

well... i guess i'm the only who's not super happy about it, and i'm swedish

and i'm obviously not pro russia, just not a huge fan of NATO :dancehall:

These are just allegations as to why Putin’s ally Orban finally approved Sweden’s membership almost two years later, but I’ll just leave this here from the other thread….

Wait, didn't they already join last year? 

You’re getting confused with Finland, who applied in May 2022 and joined in April 2023.

Oh so it was Finland then? I thought they joined together and I see.

They tried but then had to split them because Turkey was blocking Sweden joining over PKK Kurdish separatists they wanted extradited.

 

Meanwhile Turkey was being criticized for doing deals with Putin but at one point it was the only thing maintaining grain deals in the Black Sea from stolen ports to keep those in Eastern Africa from starvation.

 

Erdogan for mostly economic reasons lifted his blockade on Sweden in July 2023 and the parliament followed suit in January 2024.

I feel like having Finland in was good enough and adding Sweden was just overkill. Finland shares a huge border with Russia and the only way Russia would ever attack Sweden is through the Kalingrad exclave so it was pretty much protected in every way. But either way, it’s good to see it join I suppose. I’m glad Turkey and Hungary came through in the end.

Karin and Olof Dreijer's Sweden :clap3:

I feel like those two would be against NATO :rip: 

Finally. And a special **** you to Turkey for blocking Sweden. 

This is actually amazing. :clap3: I was told by ATRL that NATO is a useless organization but it doesnt matter. After Republicans are doing all they can to block Ukraine aid theres no telling how far Russia will go if it overtakes Ukraine. :shakeno:
