As a Finn I say this is fine. Every military resource that is tied down and not raping and destroying Ukraine is net positive.

I understand their point from a geopolitical strategy perspective, but you always have to step back and ask yourself if you'd be willing to personally sign up. I would love to see Russia beaten and Putin ousted too, but I'm not willing to physically go do that, so I can't exactly expect others to.

Not to mention, I'm old enough to know that it would never go as planned. We'd end up in forever war that kills thousands and thousands of innocent people and puts warlords in charge instead of a clean coup and instant transition to peaceful democracy.
