World War 3 Threat from Russia: After the victory of Donald Trump in the presidential elections in America, the kind of freedom that Joe Biden has given to Ukraine while leaving, has increased the risk of nuclear war along with the Third World War on the whole world. Biden removed the ban on long-range missiles that America had imposed on Ukraine. After this decision of Biden, Ukraine has also started using this missile against Russia. In such a situation, Russia had already warned about nuclear war and expansion of the war.
Here, the war between Russia and Ukraine has now lasted for more than 1,000 days and due to the worsening of the situation, many European countries are advising their residents to be prepared for war. Sweden, Finland, Norway and Denmark has issued an advisory to its citizens in which it has been said that citizens should take measures to keep themselves safe in case of crisis.
Sweden sent leaflets to citizens
Whereas Sweden started sending pamphlets to the people. These leaflets contain information about preparing for war, natural disasters and cyber or terrorist attacks. Finland has even launched a website to provide information on preparedness for various crises.
The Swedish pamphlet stated: “The level of military danger is increasing. We must prepare for the worst case – an armed attack on Sweden.”
The 32-page booklet ‘If Crisis or War Comes’ includes tips such as storing non-perishable food and water, carrying cash with you and growing fruits and vegetables in gardens.
One line in the booklet reads, “If Sweden is attacked by another country, we will never give up. All information about ending resistance is false.”
This is an updated copy of a pamphlet that Sweden has issued five times since World War II. The name of Russia, Ukraine or any other country has not been taken in the new version.
The brochure is printed in both Swedish and English and digital versions are available in several other languages ​​– including Arabic, Persian, Ukrainian, Polish, Somali and Finnish. Finland’s website claims authorities are “well prepared for self-defense.”
Finland’s preparation
The country shares a 1,340-km border with Russia and has maintained a high level of preparedness. Following Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine, Finland announced plans to build a 200-kilometre-long border fence with Russia. It will be 10 feet high and there will be barbed wire on top of it. This work is expected to be completed by 2026.
Both the Swedish and Finnish checklists include easy-to-cook meals. Finland has also asked its citizens to arrange for backup power supply.
What appeal did Norway make?
Meanwhile, Norway has also urged its citizens to be prepared to manage themselves for a week in case of war and other threats.
“We have sent out 2.2 million paper copies, one for every household in Norway,” the BBC quoted Tore Kamfjord, responsible for such campaigns at the Norwegian Directorate for Civil Protection (DSB), as saying.
Cans of beans, energy bars, pasta, and medicines – including iodine tablets in case of a nuclear accident – ​​are on the list of items to keep at home.
It is noteworthy that in view of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Nordic neighbors Sweden and Finland had abandoned decades of military non-alignment to join the US-led defense alliance NATO. Norway was a founding member of the Western Defensive Alliance.
what denmark said
According to a BBC report, Denmark’s emergency management agency has emailed its citizens details about the water, food and medicine needed to deal with the crisis.
Let us tell you that a few days after America allowed Ukraine to fire long-range American-made missiles into Russian territory, Vladimir Putin on Tuesday relaxed Russia’s rules for nuclear attacks.
Emphasis on defense preparedness
23 of the 32 NATO members have now agreed to reach the target of spending two percent of GDP on defence. However, the growing consensus is that Europe needs to do more to stand on its own.
