Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was barked in Russia by many mouths on Tuesday’s NATO peace.
Russian Officials criticized the progress of Finland’s and Sweden’s NATO membership on Wednesday in fairly moderate terms. Some steeper comments were made, and the President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdoğan barked at NATO peace in many ways.
Former President Dmitry Medvedev painted a bleak future for NATO-Finland in an interview published as early as Tuesday.
Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov stated Lenta news site According to him, “Moscow has a negative attitude towards the accession of Finland and Sweden to NATO”.
“This will not increase anyone’s safety,” Ryabkov said. “Not those who expand, nor those who join. And not those who see the military alliance as a threat. ”
However, according to Ryabkov, Finland’s and Sweden’s NATO membership would not affect Russia’s security policy in any way.
“We take care of our sustainable security anyway, 100%.”
Previously Russia has said that Finland’s NATO membership would lead to “retaliation” without specifying what these retaliation is. The same weights were heard on Wednesday.
Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of Commons of the Russian Parliament Sergei Slutski warned Finland and Sweden of the consequences of NATO membership and at the same time rebuked Turkey for its good faith.
“The rejection of the non-alignment of Finland and Sweden and joining the front line of the military alliance is their own choice,” Slutski wrote on his Telegram channel. Tassin by. “But they need to understand the significance of this step for their relations with Russia and for the European security architecture, which is in deep crisis.”
“
“From Russia’s point of view, NATO’s expansion to the east did not begin with Finland’s and Sweden’s invitation to join.”
Hail Slutski, a member of the LDPR parliamentary group, estimates that since the collapse of the Soviet Union, NATO has resolutely expanded toward Russia’s borders and that “the mantra of the union’s defensive nature is a veil of fog.”
“From Russia’s point of view, NATO’s expansion to the east did not begin with Finland’s and Sweden’s invitation to join, but with the violation of promises made to the first president of the Soviet Union,” Slutski continued.
Slutski referred to the alleged promises to the Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. The United States has allegedly assured him that NATO will not expand east with the reunification of Germany and the collapse of the Soviet Union. There is no evidence of such promises.
“Yes, and in Turkey’s position, I would not allow myself to be tempted to reject the veto by the promises made by the Swedes and Finns in connection with NATO’s accession to NATO,” Slutski wrote. “In the same way, Gorbachev was once seduced.”
Former President and Prime Minister and current Vice-President of the Security Council Dmitry Medvedev shed light on his views on the consequences of Finland’s and Sweden’s NATO membership Arguments and Facts in an interview published on Tuesday. According to Medvedev, retaliation will certainly follow.
“NATO will more than double its land border with Russia,” Medvedev said. “We need to strengthen those boundaries.”
Medvedev referred to the consequences not only in the northern regions but also in the Baltics and especially in the supply of Kaliningrad.
“A nuclear-free Baltic Sea will be a thing of the past,” Medvedev estimates. “The ground forces and fleet in the northern region will be significantly strengthened. No one is happy about it, not even our neighbors aspiring to NATO. It’s not nice when our Iskander, supersonic missile, navy and nuclear weapon are on the doorstep of home. ”
“
Medvedev referred to the consequences not only in the northern regions but also in the Baltics and especially in the supply of Kaliningrad.
Medvedev became quite poetic when comparing the future to the events of World War II.
“I might make a questionable but historical parable,” Medvedev says in an interview. “Finns remember how much the situation on the Mannerheim line once intensified and what its fate was.”
“In the ruins of these million-strongholds in the Leningrad region and around Vyborg, there are still monuments that read in two languages: ‘To those who did not live in the time appointed by the Lord but fell into the cursed fields of a cruel and unnecessary war.'”

“Turkey’s unchanging, centuries-old policy,” he commented Valerija M. “Let’s condition and condition no matter how long and finally give in to the West.”
Propaganda Fist of the State Radio and Television Company, editor Vladimir Solovyov went further in his radio comment, claiming that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is a scammer. “Don’t fly to Turkey!” Solovyov advised the Russians on vacation.
Other views on Turkey were also expressed. A political scientist who vigorously follows the Kremlin and maintains good relations with Turkey Sergei Markov piti Expert publication according to Erdoğan’s Madrid talks as a fuss, where Erdoğan got what he wanted.
“Dear Erdoğan, you humiliate an arrogant Europe !!” Markov commented. “There you go. Current European leaders do not know how to negotiate seriously or in principle and only understand the language of power. European leaders are costumes, criminals. Defending terrorists is their almost official policy. ”
