"We do not create problems for the Alliance. We are not against NATO's open door policy. But we want the Alliance's expansion to take into account the member countries' security. NATO is a security organization. One of its main tasks is the fight against terrorism. How will Sweden and Finland's explanation be if they don't fight terrorism but support it?
