🇺🇦🤝🇫🇮 Два депутата финского парламента, Андерс Адлеркройц и Атте Харьянне, предположили, что #Финляндия может поставить Украине танки Leopard 2. Хотя Финляндия не сможет поставить Украине много танков, такое решение может спровоцировать более широкую дискуссию о поставках в Украину западных танков.
Интересно то, что статья с этим мнением была первоначально опубликована в шведскоязычной финской газете Hufvudstadsbladet.

🇺🇦🤝🇫🇮 Two members of the Finnish Parliament, Anders Adlercreutz and Atte Harjanne, suggested in a joint opinion piece that #Finland could provide Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine. Although Finland would not be able to supply Ukraine with many tanks, such a decision could trigger a wider discussion about the supply of Western tanks to Ukraine.
It's interesting that the opinion piece was originally published in the Swedish-language Finnish newspaper Hufvudstadsbladet.

❗️🇺🇦🇱🇹 #Ukraine may receive an invitation to start the process of joining NATO at the Alliance's summit in July, which will be held in #Lithuania on July 11-12
President Volodymyr Zelensky will not attend unless the leaders show "courage," Igor Zhovkva, deputy head of the Ukrainian president's office, told Reuters on Thursday, Zelensky's top diplomatic adviser.
"This application is now on the tables of the leaders of NATO allies. The Vilnius summit would be a very good start to respond to this application. And by respond, we mean invitation for membership, which is only the first stage," he said.
🇫🇮🇸🇪 Zhovkva pointed to the cases of #Finland and #Sweden who applied for membership last year. Finland has already since become a member.

❗️🇺🇦🇱🇹 #Украина может получить приглашение начать процесс вступления в #НАТО на саммите Альянса в июле, который пройдет в Литве 11-12 июля
Президент Владимир Зеленский не будет присутствовать на нем, если лидеры не проявят "мужество" — об этом агентству Reuters заявил в четверг замглавы офиса президента Украины Игорь Жовква, главный дипломатический советник Зеленского.
«Эта заявка сейчас находится на столе лидеров союзников по НАТО. Вильнюсский саммит был бы очень хорошим началом для ответа на эту заявку. И под ответом мы подразумеваем приглашение к членству, что является лишь первым этапом», — сказал Жовква.
🇫🇮🇸🇪 Он также указал на случаи Финляндии и Швеции, которые подали заявку на членство в прошлом году. С тех пор Финляндия уже стала членом.

German fighters redeployed to Russian border in Finland
Three German Eurofighters from the 71st Tactical Squadron of the Luftwaffe took part in the Baana-24 maneuvers for the first time.
They landed and took off from the road near the village of Hosio, 180 km from the Russian border, practicing landing at a short distance. Then the planes taxied to the end of the runway and refueled there with the engines running. After refueling, they took off again and returned to the Rovaniemi airbase, from where the Finnish-Russian border is even less — only 147 km.

❗️🔥 NATO is developing mass evacuation plans in case of a future war with Russia, Lieutenant-General Alexander Sollfrank, the head of NATO's logistics command has declared.
The German general warned that, unlike allies' experience in Afghanistan and Iraq, an all-out war with Russia that will unfold by 2029 would likely see NATO incur heavy losses across a huge battlefield.

Planning for a large-scale medical evacuation is just one element of NATO's preparation for war with Russia.
🇬🇧🇩🇪🇭🇺🇬🇷🇵🇱🇫🇮🇸🇪Thus, as part of preparations for WW3, from January 22 to May 31, 2024, NATO's largest exercise since 1988, Steadfast Defender 2024, took place, involving over 90,000 troops, more than 50 ships, including aircraft carriers and destroyers, more than 80 aircraft, helicopters and drones, as well as more than 1,100 combat vehicles, including 133 tanks and 533 infantry fighting vehicles. These maneuvers were part of preparations for possible Russian aggression and covered countries across Europe, including #UK, #Germany, #Hungary, #Greece, #Poland, #Finland, #Sweden and others.

▫️In January 2024, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius also stated that Western countries should actively prepare for a possible war with Russia in the next 3-5 years.
