The West is throwing billions and equipment at Ukraine and training their soldiers, and still it looks very unlikely that they could stop Russia and secure their own borders. That Russia would FEAR the Nordic countries is a ridiculous idea. It's as ridiculous as if the U.S. would FEAR, let's say, a country the size of Iceland - with a defense force and some fighter jets, warships and fancy electronics, but no nuclear missiles... To underestimate and belittle Russia's military power is a serious mistake. They have the numbers and no scruples. Evidently, the West and NATO, mostly, have been hellbent on seeing how far they can push Russia with no thought of what their dangerous 'game' might lead to for the world as a whole.

That said, Denmark isn't super prepared for confrontation... we only meet Russian forces when they invade our air space above Bornholm. But would the Nordic countries defend each other?

Parabellum is a well-known trademark for a type of semi-automatic pistol among other things.

This video assumes a lot of things that aren't exactly 100% true. It gives the impression that we, the Nordics are some weaklings who are running to NATO for protection when things get hot. Like we hadn't been allied with NATO before the full membership. For the last couple of decades before joining NATO, Finland was only namely neutral. There were regular NATO exercises done in Finland and the US solders came here to learn and practise their skills on winter warfare. We were also invited to some of NATOs meatings regularly. Finland stayed officially neutral because we've had lots of experience on why it's not a good idea to irritate Russia for no good reason. We have a saying about not waking up the bear. We had hopes, just like most of Europe did, that Russia was going to a more democratic and reasonable direction. When Russia attacked Ukraine, it became clear that that was not the case. Once they proved that they were ready to take land from Ukraine by force, we saw that the bear had already awaken. There was no reason for us to remain neutral from that point on. That's one of the reasons why the public opinion on joining NATO turned so fast. We're practical people and now we were finally free to officially express who we've been standing with for years. No reasons left to stand back and pretend that Russia is our friend.

The fact that Russia at least used to have more of everything is old news. During winter war Soviet Union was in deep trouble with Finland alone back in mid 1940's. And because all the sanctions post by western nations against Russia, war in Ukraine where even most optimistic valuations are that Russia loses about 1000 men every day, has already lost pretty much all of it's modern battle tanks, and tracked vehicle's, even losing many of their Jet fighters and few battle ships. Putin has been forced to bring old world war 2 era tanks from storage to trying to take Ukraine to themselves. Also most Russian soldier's lack good training ,armor, and weaponry. So it really is way more evenly matched if Russia and Scandinavian countries would go to war rivht now.. Some western military specialists valueate that war against Ukraine has put Russia back some 50-60 years in terms of war capabilities. Also all Scandinavian countries do have most modern weaponry and best training.

That's not quite right. Sweden today has a standing troop in peacetime of 32,000 soldiers. Should it break out, we have a reserve force of up to 70,000 then I have included our conscripts as well , which will mean that we can deploy 102,000 men. The Swedish defense is to be strengthened to 90,000-100,000 men by the year 2030, then we will also have the home guard of over 30,000, but it takes time to build up. Finland is not correct either, they have a standing force of 280,000 thousand men, they can mobilize a total of 900,000 which we could also do between the 60s and 80s. Which would mean that only we and Finland can mobilize a total of 1,002,000 and then all reserves are also called up. So no, this video is not quite right.

Finland kept its independence but lost its territories, such as Karelia.

Germany was the only country that gave us weapons and attacked Russia at the same time we were trying to get back the lands and people's homes that were stolen from us. In addition to Germany, Sweden sold us weapons. Sold, did not give. No other country helped Finland fight against a country many times bigger than itself. A common enemy unites if one's own family is in danger. Finland never had anything else to do, let alone shared values, with Germany at that time. After all, Finland was also at war with Germany, the war in question is called the Lapland War. Finland also never participated in the siege of any city or the murders of civilians. That was the Finnish border. So if someone has a problem with that, they have a lack of knowledge of the facts.

Also Russia don’t have carriers etc in the Baltic Sea and all their military can’t be at one place at pone time. They need to keep their whole country safe so all that military ”might” needs to be spread of over their whole country. So for them to attack Scandinavia and ”win” easy is just a pure of lie.

This comparison / report by no means tells the whole correct story. I also do not understand the angle and the narrative of the article at all. By omitting / understating / exaggerating essential information, I find the article as a whole at best completely pointless and at worst pure misinformation. For example, the military budget in 2024 is from about $7 billion to well over $8 billion per Nordic country which they should know. Another thing that doesn't come up at all is that all the Nordic countries all have tailored their defenses (everything from materials to exercises) to suit each country's geographical conditions. That Russia would have big problems invading for example Finland is quite certain (they tried in 1939) and even more so now that all the countries are in NATO, which of course gives the opportunity to invoke article five but above all gives large logistical advantages, not only for the Nordic countries but for the entire Baltic Sea region. Russia on the other hand has extremely poorly developed infrastructure along the entire Finnish border with only a single railway between Russia's more central parts all the way to Murmansk and also a very sparse and outdated road network. The Baltic Sea also nowadays is a close thing to a Nordic / Baltic / Polish / German inland sea with only the harbor in the small enclave of Kaliningrad the only russian harbor in the Baltic Sea beeing ice-free all year round. Kaliningrad is furthermore completely enclosed by Poland and Lithuania, both of which are NATO members, and also has only a single railway that runs through Lithuania to Russia. Both Sweden, Norway and Finland have extremely modern and well-developed naval forces and have practiced coastal defense for decades (side track: In a joint war game in 2005, a Swedish Gotland-class stealth submarine managed to repeatedly sink the American aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan without ever being detected 😉😁). Both Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland have State of the Art air forces with, for example, the F 35 in Norway, Denmark and Finland and Sweden's JAS 39 Gripen, which is a multi-role aircraft developed and adapted for Nordic conditions and among other things have world-leading technology for electronic warfare. Furthermore, I am quite convinced that Russia's superiority in terms of things like tanks / other armored vehicles and also naval forces is greatly exaggerated. Why else would they deploy quite a substantial number of old refurbished tanks like T-62s and T-72s from the 1960s and early 70s in Ukraine. Both their tanks and other armored vehicles have also proven to be quite inferior to the likes of Abrams, Leopards, Bradleys and the Swedish CV-90 and also very vulnerable to Ukrainian weapons such as their specially developed anti-tank drones. The Russian fleet in the Black Sea has been largely inactive and tucked away in harbors far from Ukraine for the past two years, especially since their pride and flagship for their Black Sea fleet, the guided-missile cruiser Moskva, was sunk by Ukrainian land-based missiles in 2022. Russia's only aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov has been in dry dock in Murmansk since 2017 awaiting repairs and upgrades and has suffered several accidents and fires in the meantime. I would like to say that Russia's military power can be fairly accurately described with a few key words: Incompetence, grave, bordering on unimaginable corruption, top management from politicians with no military skills, propaganda / exaggerations and overall aging and very badly maintained material. If Russia were ever to get serious about any of their many nuclear threats, there is hardly much ANYONE can do, but firstly, a large part of western Russia would become quite uninhabitable in the event of a nuclear attack on, for example, Finland or Sweden, because of the prevailing weather conditions in and around the Baltic Sea and secondly, I wouldn't be very surprised if the general rot in the Russian military also extends to their nuclear arsenal.
