This was in January 2022:

"In a recent poll by Finland's largest daily Helsingin Sanomat, 28% of respondents wanted Finland to join NATO, 42% were against and the rest were unsure, meaning an 8 percentage point rise in the share of those in favour from the last poll at the end of 2019."

They basically took advantage of popular sentiment right after the SMO started to ramrod what they wanted in the first place. Why else do you think they were buying MLRS and the F-35 even before the conflict started?

And in November 2022 78% of the Finish people were positive to joining Nato. Way to go Putin.

"78 percent of Finns have a positive attitude towards Finland's NATO membership. This is shown by the opinion poll that the business delegation Eva published on Wednesday.
The last measurement was made in March. At the time, 60 percent supported Finnish membership in the defense alliance."

Hahaha... HATO makes war by committee... the more members it gets the weaker it becomes...

It is only a matter of time now before Fins will start to realise they are now a hostile country to their large neighbour and what they will get out of that is a fence and an occupying force of US and UK and other foreign soldiers on their territory.

Doesn't really change anything for Russia except they don't need to worry about sending cheap wood to Finland to buy it back as expensive paper products any more...

Finland is so small and so close that Iskander missiles will cover most targets, but ground launched cruise missiles should make Sweden an easy target too if needed.

What is really good is that two more European countries show their hostile faces to Russia so Russia can be in no doubt where they stand and not waste time looking for good relations there.
