P.S little expansion on the numbers russia would need. Not when allies come to help Baltics (and #NB8 will), just to block that case

#NB8 is emerging as a new powerhouse within the Western allied space. The meeting of heads of government held today in Tallinn marked a new chapter in the cooperation of eight like-minded and strong democracies. An integral part of this is the defence of Ukraine’s sovereignty. 🇪🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹🇫🇮🇳🇴🇮🇸🇸🇪🇩🇰🇺🇦

One thing holding us back is historic memory. Every other time we have done an arms race, we ourselves, and especially other parts of the world haven't had fun times. But I think we are ready. WW2 memory hasn't faded, yet the need for spine is newly understood. #NB8 leading, rule the waves #EU! 🇪🇺

​Building a stronger, more united Europe! 🇪🇺💪 ​ This piece highlights the incredible strides in Nordic-Baltic defense cooperation. From joint air power to integrated land forces, the region is proving that a "can-do" mindset and deep partnership can create a resilient "European pillar." #NB8

There are many questions and Marcone has promised stuff only to later back-track it but in total, this is major. Especially for NCEE and #NB8 5/end

Finally listened The Wargame podcast. Very much recommended for MÖPs and #defence nerds. ESPECIALLY important for discussions about independent #NB8 #nuclear #deterrent & #strategy. Just listen to how much real, veteran British politicians rely on it! podcasts.musixmatch.com/podcast/the-...

The new US #NationalSecurityStrategy is so alarming that I spent hours today on this piece, rather than my real work. We the Europeans, and especially the #NB8 countries in #NATO 's Eastern Flank, MUST prepare to defend our #democracy and deter #Russia by ourselves. jmkorhonen.net/2025/12/05/w...

2025-02-21: In response to USA demonstrating conclusively that it cannot be relied upon, and rising tide of isolationist far right & other parties in European Great Powers, my still-standing recommendation to #NB8 is to develop independent deterrent capabilities. bsky.app/profile/jmko...

#NB8 in action

Isegi kui kõrvale jääks kaugemad liitlased nagu Itaalia või Hispaania, siis teeme oma lahingplaani nagunii miinimumiga. Ehk siis #NB8 või Nordic-Baltic kaheksa, mis on siis Norra, Rootsi,Soome, Taani, Island, Läti, Leedu ja Eesti.

@PieterJJ there also exists Nordic-Baltic Eight (#NB8), a regional co-operation format that includes #Denmark, #Estonia, #Finland, #Iceland, #Latvia, #Lithuania, #Norway, and #Sweden.

#Nordic and #Baltic foreign ministers have agreed to help step up support for #Moldova after Russia's Gazprom stopped #gas supplies to the country. The #NB8 ministers said that Gazprom's move sought to undermine Moldova's stability.

A joint commitment by the #NB8 countries:

"At the NATO summit in Vilnius, Lithuania, this week, we want to see ambitious steps bringing Ukraine closer to NATO and upscaling our practical support, both financially and longer-term."
