    HELSINKI — When the Finnish Reservists’ Assn. recently announced wartime defense courses for civilian women in the southern town of Haemeenlinna, the 400 slots filled almost immediately, with a waiting list of 500 more.
    Topics will include shooting, cybersecurity and how to manage the first several days of an invasion from abroad.

    • Putin is doing a great job of justifying building a military presence all around his borders.formed
    • He's also doing a great job of dismantling his non-nuclear forces, and Russia's ability to develop and sustain more in future.
      It's quite incredible.      Nairn
