    If my math is correct, it took Finland 38 seconds to ratify Sweden's Nato membership.

      Finland and Sweden aren't merely friends, we are SIBLINGS, and regardless of how much sh*t we give each other, we WILL fight for each other when necessary; thousands of Swedish volunteers in our wars with USSR, literal millions of kronor as private (and 'private'-) donations to the funding of the "Salpa -line" (literally "dead-bolt line", the new main defence line built after the Winter war spanning the entire length of our border with USSR-), the fact that for Winter war the Swedish Flygvapnet donated a full third of its aircraft to Finland & "voluntold" a big portion of its personnel to use & maintain that equipment in defence of the Northern Finland, the fact that during aforementioned wars Sweden took in over a hundred thousand Finnish children in order to keep them safe from Soviet bombings, the fact that Swedish hospitals took in thousands of wounded Finnish soldiers for treatment and recuperation, as well as all the other different ways Sweden has helped us, I think the small gesture of formally handing over the Finnish ratification of the Swedish accession to NATO *IMMEDIATELY* after our official admission to NATO was *the bare minimum* we could do, we Finns may joke about how "Svea-mamma will defend herself to the last Finn", but at the end of the day we know that we are siblings & that both countries WILL look out for each other as siblings.

      it was literally the least we could do, the Archipelago Sea is MUCH easier to defend with the Swedish Navy and Flygvapnet in NATO, not to mention the help Swedish Army can provide in defending Finnish Lapland.

    NATO is not lines and borders on the world map, NATO is freedom, cooperation, prosperity and mutual trust for its people. In that regard we have a lot to learn from Finland. I hope Sweden will follow shortly after, also Ukraine and Georgia in the near future.

    • @aliancemd

      I wish for Nigerians to have the umbrella of stability and security but the reality is that the “North” part limits who can enter the alliance.
      Africa though is currently in a Renaissance of its own, it could be possible that they create their own alliance of countries guided by the rule of law and freedom for all people(speech, protest, etc), offering stability to its people.

    To overthrow dictators and protect people from them, we also need education and free press in this world.
    Education and freedom of speech are the worst enemies of dictatorships.
