I Am A Swede

Such a dilemma. On one hand, I'm tired of Meena and her crime spree and I want her story to end, but on the other hand, she is a non-Dingle getting screentime.....

I guess you mean join NATO? We've been members of the EU since 1995, both Finland and Sweden. The funny thing is that, prior to Russia's war against Ukraine I don't think either Finland or Sweden seriously considered joining NATO. Finland has always tried to keep its relation with the Soviet Union and later Russia very friendly, and we here in Sweden have been very proud of our long neutrality and our position as a non-aligned country. But with Russia becoming increasingly hostile, and with the invasion of Ukraine, I think that, for the first time, the possibility of a Russian assault of some kind doesn't seem as far-fetched as it used to. Very early during the Russian invasion there were warnings coming out of the Kremlin that all those who supported Ukraine should be prepared to suffer the consequences. So if we (Finland and Sweden) do decide to apply for NATO membership (and it is looking increasingly likely) then the Russians have only themselves to blame.

Kim Clijsters retires....again. Kim Clijsters: Former world number one retires from tennis for third time Maybe this time it will stick...

Oh wow..... R.I.P.

Yeah, like the Russian invasion of Ukraine has brought stability to Europe! Just a few weeks ago joining NATO was not even discussed here, but after Russia's attack on Ukraine public opinion has turned. And statements like this will only boost the numbers in favour of us joining.
