Russia Cuts Electricity Supply To Finland Over It's Plans To Join NATO (Photos) by WriterNig: 5:54pm On May 13, 2022 |
Russia suspends electricity supplies to Finland, a supplier said on Friday as tensions rise over Helsinki's NATO bid amid Moscow's military campaign in Ukraine. 'We are forced to suspend the electricity import starting from May 14,' said RAO Nordic, a subsidiary of Russian state energy holding Inter RAO. 'RAO Nordic is not able to make payments for the imported electricity from Russia.' The firm is not directly faced with Western sanctions over the invasion into Ukraine, Montel News reports. However the outlet adds Inter Rao Lietuva - its 51% owned Lithuanian subsidiary - is. MailOnline has reached out to RAO Nordic for more information. It comes as Russia yesterday accused Finland of 'pushing above its weight' as the country signalled its intention to join NATO. Putin's EU ambassador vowed to bolster defences on the Russia and Finland's shared 800-mile-long border if it decided to join the alliance. Vladimir Chizhov said if Finland joined it would lead to 'certain military-technical measures, like improving or raising the degree of defence preparations along the Finnish border'. A move would 'certainly necessitate rethinking of Russian defence posture' but not 'necessarily [involve] troops and tanks, but certain preparations like radars, perhaps', he told Sky News. Yesterday a former British ambassador to Russia has said there may be 'much more Russian nuclear deployment in the Baltic' areas in response to Finland potentially becoming a NATO member in light of the war in Ukraine. Sir Tony Brenton told BBC's Newsnight programme the Kremlin may think 'it expands their view of NATO as a threat to them'. He said: 'They will be very conscious especially as this war winds its way to a conclusion that their conventional forces have not produced the results they hoped for. 'They will be increasingly inclined therefore to use their nuclear strength as a demonstration they need to be taken seriously. 'I think we need to resign ourselves to the likelihood of much more Russian nuclear deployment in the Baltic area as a response to Finland's accession to NATO, when it comes, and Sweden's very likely one as well.'

This war is just revealing how big Russia is. So imagine Finland, a European country cannot generate its own electricity which means they are on Niger Republic and Benin third world level. Nigeria is better than a lot of countries but our inferiority complex won't let us see it. 434 Likes 39 Shares |

I still don't get why Russia hasn't placed troops, nuclear weapons & ICBMs in Cuba, Nicaragua & Venezuela yet. Or form their own alliance with all NATO adversaries. Since NATO has refused to stop moving towards Russia's borders. Russia should start moving closer to NATO's borders. 265 Likes 19 Shares |

The Finnish electricity network operator said it would be able to make do without Russian electricity. Ode, PouTin, Finland saw you coming, they were ready and the little 10% they get from you is replaceable with ease, you just scored your own goal again. Blackmail and hostage-taking is like saying to your customers never to trust or rely on you. This is the kind of threat that led Finland to NATO in the first place. PouTin is just too dumb and overrated. 120 Likes 22 Shares |

All this NEWS or NOISE was factored into their plan before they made the decision to join NATO.... Putin's Russia is like a man rearing chicken waiting for Christmas to arrive.... He is not feeding the chicken because he loves the chicken, He is feeding the chicken because he has other ideas at Christmas. The Finnish parliament have weighed the Pros and Cons of countinous romance with Putin's Russia... They decided that it is not worth it...... Hence their decision to join NATO. The same nation that supply you electricity, oil and gas today would wake up tomorrow and Invade your nation because of their desire to restore the old Soviet Union. Finland had lost vast land to Russia in the Winter War and they are not ready to loose more land to Putin's Russia in the future. Know your enemies early and let them know that you know their evil Christmas plans. 128 Likes 14 Shares |

What kind of headline is this? Russia said it will suspended electricity, gas and oil supplies to Finland due to non-payment of Finland in Rubles since May 6th, according to Finnish PM. Finnish PM said that Finland will not pay in Ruble even as many EU countries have already open up Ruble account. 66 Likes 3 Shares |
