Medvedev says Finland could become potential nuclear target for Russia

Deputy Chairman of Russia's Security Council Dmitry Medvedev has claimed that Finland has become a potential target for a Russian nuclear strike following the country's decision to lift its ban on the import of nuclear weapons.

"Finland has lifted its ban on hosting nuclear weapons. What does that change for the Finns? Just one minor thing: their country is now on Russia's nuclear target list. Rejoice, Finland, you’ve reached peak security!" Medvedev wrote on X.

On June 17, Finland's parliament approved a government-backed bill allowing the import of nuclear weapons into the country.
