Because Putin know that Obama, E.U. and NATO won't do a damn thing to stop him...

Right now, the worse thing Obama can do is send Kerry over there in the hope that his idiocy is contagious,

“it shows that the country has a Russia-complex, said Markov”

Can’t imagine why that might be. Someone needs to mention a certain Finnish snipers name to Markov.

Even Sweden is thinking of joining NATO, to survive.

Sorry, Finland. It was nice knowin' ya.

Maybe when we get a President with balls like, say, Sarah Palin, we might be able to rescue you.

Until then, onnea.

Yeah but Bathhouse Barry will draw it in front of the Fins warning them against joining NATO, because if there is a side that will aid Americas enemies and hurt her allies that is the side he will always pick!

Assuming “Russofobien” means “fear of Russia”, then yes, Finland would have to be mentally retarded not to have a strong fear of Russia.

“Finland is one of the most russofobiske countries in Europe, after Sweden and the Baltic countries...”

Gee, I wonder why that would be? Could it be because of decades and decades of Russian occupation, Russification, and then a Russian led communist infiltration and attempted overthrow of Finland’s fledgling government right after WWI and then Stalin’s land grab and the Winter War in 1939-1940?

Gee, I wonder.

Don’t mess with the Finns. They had a sniper that bagged like 300 or so Soviets.

Of course the Red/Red sympathizing NYT reporter has to describe the destruction of Soviet aggressor forces as a “terrifying sight”.
