Finland, Norway and Sweden create “railway”
Finland has allocated € 5 million to design a new rail line with Sweden and Norway, which facilitates the transfer and relocation of NATO military equipment in the event of war.
According to RCO News Agency, the Finnish newspaper Italhati wrote that Helsinki abandoned its long -standing policy of neutrality and joined NATO in April after the clashes between Russia and Ukraine.
Sweden also followed the procedure, saying that the reason for his joining NATO was due to security concerns caused by the clashes of Ukraine and Russia.
In response to these measures, Moscow also pledged to strengthen its defense position on the northwestern border of Russia.
The Italhati newspaper, citing anonymous government sources, claimed that the new Railway project, which the Finnish government had allocated to plan, was underway.
According to the newspaper, the total cost of the project will probably reach billions of euros, and its construction work is expected to continue until the 1980s.
The newspaper went on to claim that the Helsinki government hopes to provide EU financial aid for the project.
The Minister of Transport and Communications in Finland, in an interview with the Italhati newspaper last November, pointed to the Russian threat, explaining the necessity of the railway project, saying: “Tanks and balls should be transferred and moved in the event of any critical and emergency situation.”
According to an updated NATO policy released last month, the block “continues to integrate its latest members, Finland and Sweden, in programs, forces and command structures, including the presence of forces in Finland.”
Recently, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Moscow is taking steps to improve its security as the Russian military is essential in recent years, as NATO military infrastructure has “gradually deployed in Finnish territory”.
In an interview with the French -language magazine Le Poen, he emphasized that Russia had never had a problem with joining Finland or Sweden to NATO and reluctant to attack the two countries.
