The pro NATO policy won't change. Finnish acquaintances are now reply dafraid of Russia, they see the Ukraine invasion as a real imminent threat to them too. I have tried to suggest to them that as long as you're neutral, which is after all what you agreed to with the then USSR in 1940, you're perfectly safe and that NATO will bring you nothing but stress, impoverishment and danger. . But they've made plans to flee to Sweden if the country is invaded. A large majority of Finns who have partaken in surveys support NATO membership, but certainly it should have been put to a referendum. Finland self voted as the world's happiest country, I would vote as the world's most deluded. It's a total tragedy.
