A Finnish analysis paints a concerning picture, suggesting a significant war with Russia could erupt by 2040. The report identifies the Baltic states, Poland, and Nordic countries as being particularly at risk from potential Russian aggression. Military expert Carlo Masala corroborates this assessment, acknowledging the possibility of a Russian attack. The analysis indicates a growing threat level and potential for major conflict within the next two decades. This assessment stems from observed Russian behaviour and increasing geopolitical tensions. It underscores the need for heightened vigilance and reinforced defenses across Eastern Europe. These findings are prompting a reassessment of security strategies within Finland and amongst its allies.
