  15.  @FINNSTIGAT0R  Wow there is a lot to unpack there. As someone who tries to follow what is going on around the world I've seen quite a bit of Turkey complaining that members of armed groups aren't being extradited from Sweden and Finland (Sweden a lot more). This was well before this Nato issue came up, so this idea that this cropped up right as the Nato issue came up is unfortunately wrong. I myself am from the United States, so not being from Turkey, Finland or Sweden I can be less emotional about this issue and try to be rational. As far as Turkey having issues with the United States on these same exact issues that is 100% correct. Except Turkey has zero leverage on us over these issues like they do with Sweden right now. The fighter jet issue is also a very complex issue, mostly due to some bone headed decisions by the Obama administration and Erdogan's complete and utter stubbornness when Trump tried to fix the problem years later. Fact of the matter is Turkey is hot skipping mad (mostly at Sweden and rightfully so) and it seems Finland has gotten caught up in this entire mess. I'd imagine when push comes to shove the Turks will budge on the Finland matter but it will take A LOT for them to back off on Sweden. I do agree that Finland joining Nato will change the entire geo political structure of that region. So much so that under normal circumstances I would have bet on some sort of Russian military operation to stop it. But now that Russia is bogged down in Ukraine which is a cake walk compared to what they'd face in Finland. Finland's geography alone will prohibit Russia from doing much after learning the lack of capabilities their military possesses. Sweden on the other than I'm not sure what they'd bring to the organization other than another cog to push the Russians out of that body of water between them. Not to mention that compared to Finland they do not have a ready to fight population. Best thing for Finland is to simply sign a new extradition treaty with Turkey and hope their Nato bid can be decoupled from Sweden's bid. Sweden is fuked lol
