Following Finland’s bid to join NATO, Metro UK is reporting that Russia has now moved its nuclear-capable missiles towards its border with the country.
This is coming after Russia warned that Finland and Sweden joining NATO will be a ‘grave mistake with far reaching consequences’.
Russian deputy foreign minister, Sergei Ryabkov, said: ‘They should have no illusions that we will simply put up with it,’ and insisted ‘the general level of military tension will rise’.
This morning a video believed to have been filmed on a road leading to Vyborg, around 24 miles from the Finnish border, shows the deployment of mobile Iskander missiles.
Seven launchers are thought to be en route according to commentary on a dash cam video broadcast by Russian media.
A person is heard to say: ‘As soon as the president of Finland said they were joining Nato, a whole division of Iskanders, seven of them, is moving towards Vyborg.
‘Looks like a new military unit is about to be formed in Vyborg or the region.’
The footage emerged as it was claimed on Russian state television that Moscow could launch nuclear weapons on its European border if Sweden and Finland allow military bases on their territories.
Stockholm’s formal application to join Nato is expected to begin today after being debated and agreed by MPs.
The dramatic U-turn by Sweden’s Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson and her party comes as she warned Sweden and Europe are facing a ‘dangerous new reality’.
‘The best thing for the security of Sweden and the Swedish people is to join Nato,’ she said.
