Finland becomes the 31st Country to become a member of the Alliance.

In 1949, there were 12 founding members of the Alliance: Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Since then, 19 more countries have joined the Alliance: Greece and Türkiye (1952); Germany (1955); Spain (1982); Czechia, Hungary and Poland (1999); Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia (2004); Albania and Croatia (2009); Montenegro (2017); North Macedonia (2020); and Finland (2023).

Let's see how this will go....
I bet that will be decided on how Ukraine raime palava end.


I doubt Russia will attack though...
But I wish Russia show them small pepper.
Re: NATO: The Moment Finland's Flag Was Raised In Brussels by nairalanda1(m):
On the one hand, Finalnd should not do this really. Russia just does not want to be surrounded by enemies...which is why it is acting the way it acts. If you guys read Russian history, Russia has been invaded too many times because it has a very long land border, and enemies can easily penetrate without bothering about a response. That's why it does not want Ukraine to join NATO...plus Ukraine even sits on a very weak point in Russia's defences.

On the other hand, Finland does not trust Moscow. At the end, they were 1) colonised by Russia, 2) fought russia in recent memory 3) If Russia decided that it was in its interest to bomb Finland, they would....and no one would bat an eyelid. Looking at Ukraine, in times like this, one has to sign up to be America's lapdog so that Russia won't bother you much.

(Sometimes global affairs resembles Mafia affairs. Countries comming under the protection of the local Mafia warlord to protect them from another Mafia warlord. Maybe La Cosa Nostra was unto something).

That's why anyone backing a side is backing one warlord against another. Make we Nigerians just siddon look. Anyone backing NATO, USA or Rossiya should stop. If it is in their interest to bomb us to the pre-cambrian era....they will do it, and the world will look on. There are no good guys here. Just humans engaging in a (you know what) measuring contest. Like the Babylonians, Persians and Egyptians once did...


P.S

Funny now that I have been attacked by both American and Russian fanboys. Well, as far as I know, this war has no side. At the end, humans should calm down and think sanely.

Re: NATO: The Moment Finland's Flag Was Raised In Brussels by Nobody: 3:28pm On Apr 04, 2023
Since 1940s, I never see country wey invade a sovereign country to annex it's Territory..
Na due to this Russia bullying tendencies make all these miniaturized countries dey join NATO.
And Russia has proven them right by invading Ukraine to annex her Territory.

And one thing is certain, on no account would NATO attack Russia first.
So those countries are joining to protect themselves.
But the Truth is that, USA won't take this thing they are doing to Russia.
Taking that Cuban missile crises into account.
USA are hypocrites anyways.

Historic moment for Finnish people. Putin lacks tact and diplomacy. His high handedness is making the west come closer him, which is his nightmare. You don't bully people into loving or supporting you.

All these alliance because of Russia!

I wish their resources can be channelled towards curtailing or total elimination of terrorists and the religion of pieces AKA Islam!
Re: NATO: The Moment Finland's Flag Was Raised In Brussels by Microwhy: 3:29pm On Apr 04, 2023
Reason for the expansion?
I wish when this alliance start their troubles, Africa and its leaders have already garner and gather alot so that we can just close our airspace and borders also our waterways.
Let the fittest survive.

Yes the west may be going too far but putin should also stop playing God by determining the faith of this countries,they're free nation and not under Russia. He should be man enough by starting to defend his keep as well and no one is stopping russia from expanding their alliance as well. let peace rain abeg embarassed
