Shows how concerned they actually are about NATO
Well Finland, really, in this case.
Joining NATO really didn't change the situation in practice at all.
We've had a pretty stable if salty relationship with Russia, since, well... quite a few hundred years since.
The NATO thing has been on the table for 70+ years. I don't mind it went through, the idea of NATO is great (US just has somewhat too much influence over it for it to be truly a politically neutral defence alliance), but even when it went through, it was about 50/50.
The people who were pro-NATO used a lot of fear mongering about Russia. Even when it was rather clear Russia would not have had the resources and troops to open up a second front.
Sounds like it's time to open a second front for them
Making things worse is their ultimate skill
