What was said
"In just the last week, the United States said that if there is a war with the Russians, they're not sending any appreciable hardware to assist. And that absolutely colored the decision-making in Finland."
Peter Zeihan reports that Finland's parliament voted with a two-thirds majority to legalize nuclear weapon transport, storage, and production following a recent US statement refusing to send hardware in a potential Russia conflict. This marks a dramatic shift from reliance on US security guarantees to independent nuclear deterrence.
