Recall, according to NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, if Finland or Sweden decide to apply for NATO membership, they can count on a positive response and an early entry procedure.

Meanwhile, The Times writes that Russia's mythical fear of expanding NATO's borders, which became one of the reasons for military aggression against Ukraine, is coming true.. Ironically, it was the Russian Federation that contributed to this. Already in the summer of 2022, Finland and Sweden intend to join the Alliance.
