Finlanda e dispusă să intre sub două „umbrele nucleare”, ale Marii Britanii și Franței
The UK has proposed to extend its nuclear umbrella to Finland and other countries in the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF), enhancing nuclear deterrence. This offer was made during a visit by the UK's naval commander, Gwyn Jenkins, who emphasized that British nuclear weapons would support JEF's military units. JEF includes Nordic and Baltic nations and operates independently of NATO's collective defense clause. Finland's defense committee chair noted JEF as a key component of Finland's defense strategy, especially in light of perceived long-term threats from Russia. Finland recently joined France's nuclear deterrence initiative, while Romania declined a similar offer from France, citing existing US nuclear protection.
