It is pretty funny how for us Finns, Putin managed with one move to do what decades of pro-NATO propaganda couldn't and push us to join.

Lol at the people downvoting this like that isn't exactly what happened: NATO had wanted Finland to join for years, but they didn't want to join, for fear of provoking Russia. Putin shows the world that appeasement doesn't work, and Finland joins in a heartbeat.
