Ukraine, Camporini: “Finland and Sweden ready militarily if attacked”

“Sweden and Finland are more than ready, militarily, in case of Russian aggression”. General Vincenzo Camporini, former Chief of Staff of the Air Force and Defense, said this to the Adnkronos, commenting on the forthcoming entry of NATO of the two historically independent Finland and Sweden. “They have armed forces, political cohesion and such solidity that God protects those who want to attack them. And from this point of view, their entry into NATO constitutes a significant increase in the capacity of the Atlantic Alliance to deter this type of aggression.” “Finally there is a communication channel that involves two characters who wear uniforms even though they hold ministerial functions, one Minister of Defense and the other Secretary of Defense” he continues referring to the interview that took place between Lloyd Austin and Sergei Shoigu. “It is essential that these communication channels are kept open, in a clear or even confidential way, because in this way we avoid any misunderstanding from escalating. Therefore, this conversation is welcome, it must constitute the opening of a channel that must stay open “. Regarding the timing for a possible peace, General Camporini holds back expectations and talks about “long negotiations for sure – he says – in one to two months we can expect a ceasefire, after which a long, tiring negotiation will begin, which we hope he will be able to identify a point of convergence between the various Russian and Ukrainian political wills. Finland and Sweden are right to join NATO, it is not a provocation, that was done by Putin who wants to expand the borders of Russia beyond what they were a few months ago. Today is the news that the leader of the separatists of South Ossetia, a piece of territory that is legally part of Georgia, has promulgated a referendum for annexation to Russia on July 17. Putin’s real intentions, in light of this, I’m not saying it’s understandable, it’s a duty “.
