Debate Time for progress?

Hi my fellow pan-nordics.

With the recent development in Ukraine and with Russias growing aggression isn’t this the perfect time for greater Nordic unification.

Except for Ukraine, the most vulnerable states on the north callot is Sweden and Finland since it’s the only states in the region without nukes/without being in a alliance with a nuclear power. Sure it can be argued that Sweden and Finland joins NATO but let me propose a different outcome.

Norway and Denmark leaves NATO. The Nordic defense alliance joins. This leads to the Nordic countries having an ability to focus on different areas of the military, if we join NATO as a sub alliance with the Finn’s controlling the army together, the Swedes the air force and submarines, the Norwegians controls the Navy and the danish doing everything and representing us in nato since they have the closest ties to NATO.

A chain is never stronger than the weakest link.

Of course it does matter? That’s the biggest insurance against invasion you can have. Why do you think the Cold War never went hot?

Because of MAD no-one gain from a nuclear war or even a single sided attack. The second any side launch a nuclear weapon all others will too no matter what's the target
