Finland's NATO Membership: Implications and Expectations.
TL;DR Summary
Finland has become the 31st member of NATO, doubling Russia's land borders with the alliance. The move will create a "retaining wall" around Russia, starting in northern Europe with Finland and reaching eastward. However, Finland will not host NATO troops for the time being. Russia has threatened to rebalance its security system following Finland's accession, but Finland has joined NATO to balance Russia's aggressive behavior and bring stability to northern Europe.
