Senior Research Fellow at the Institute Charly Salonius-Pasternak commented on the Finland’s letters to military reservists. He argued that even if the initiative of sending the letters pre-dated Russia’s seizure of Crimea, the letter was clearly prompted by worries about the Kremlin’s intentions. “If Russia had headed down the path towards being a liberal democracy, there would not have been the pressure to do this” he said to The Telegraph on May 21st.
