Finland Unveils 1st Section Of Russian Border Fence After Joining NATO
• Zero HedgeFollowing Finland's April 4th entry into NATO, the Scandinavian country has this week unveiled completion of its first section of a 200-km long border fence with Russia.
The real question is, Will this fence effectively keep Finns out of Russia? If Ukraine had built a big fence before going to war with Russia (by attacking her own people in the Donbas), would the millions of refugees fleeing Ukraine have gone elsewhere, other than Russia? Or is it the tiny start of a program in Finland to keep Finns from leaving the country at all? Does the water freeze in northern Finland in the winter so Finns can walk around the fence into Russia? Fence (and defense?) contractors must be happy with all the money they are making.
