Yeah, it's all talk at this stage and if in the insane chance it isn't, Finland and Sweden would absolutely finish this pathetic army off, they're already getting their asses kicked by Ukraine.

Also not the best example used by the Russian Senator considering they STILL haven't taken Mariupol and STILL haven't defeated the Azovstal fighters.

Also ‘if they join Nato’. They do realise the response if they attack Sweden and Finland for joining Nato, right?

I don't know about Finland but from what I've read Sweden won't have any guarantees from Nato until we're a full member, so there will be a window during the application process where Russia could attack without risking war with Nato.
