Emmanuel Macron “If the Russians were to break through the front lines, if there were a Ukrainian request [of sending ground troops to Ukraine], which is not the case today, we would legitimately have to ask ourselves this question.” 8 hours ago
David Cameron “We will give three billion pounds every year for as long as is necessary. We've just really emptied all we can in terms of giving equipment. The aid package was the largest from the UK so far. Some of that (equipment) is actually arriving in Ukraine today, while I'm here. Ukraine has a right to use the weapons provided by London to strike targets inside Russia, and that it was up to Kyiv whether to do so. Ukraine has that right. Just as Russia is striking inside Ukraine, you can quite understand why Ukraine feels the need to make sure it's defending itself.” 8 hours ago

“This is a historic moment which we must seize. I warmly welcome requests by Finland and Sweden to join NATO. You are our closest partners, and your membership in NATO will increase our shared security.”

“There is an urgency to keep the time gap between applying to joining and actually becoming a member as short as possible for fear of Russia taking some form of action before the Article 5 security guarantee comes into force as they become members. The process will still take several months, and NATO as an institution will accept their applications at their summit at the end of June in Madrid. But then, every existing NATO member state must ratify Sweden and Finland's membership application. This will take some time and will vary depending on the rules in each member state. It is likely to be late 2022 at the earliest when this is complete.”

“Finland and Sweden have long met the basic requirements for being in NATO, not least because of the strength of their democratic institutions and strong civilian control over their militaries. As such, the process for joining should be speedier and thus smoother than what might have been the case with those countries that were under communist rule during the Cold War.”

“We hope the parliament will confirm the decision to apply for NATO membership during the coming days. It will be based on a strong mandate. Hopefully, we can send our applications next week together with Sweden.”

“Turkey made it clear that its intention is not to block membership. I am confident we'll be able to find common ground, consensus on how to move on membership issues.”

“Finland must apply for NATO membership without delay. We hope that the national steps still needed to make this decision will be taken rapidly within the next few days.”

“I think the decision on Finnish NATO membership was taken on February 24, at five o'clock in the morning, when [Russian President Vladimir] Putin attacked Ukraine. That's when the public opinion basically took a 180 degree turn. From 50 percent against and 20 percent in favour, to 50 percent in favour and 20 percent against. Currently, we are at 68 percent in favour and 12 percent against.”

“Unsurprisingly, Russia's invasion of Ukraine has been the key factor in pushing Sweden and Finland closer to applying for full membership of NATO. Russia's invasion has dramatically changed the political discourse in Sweden and Finland and also crucially public opinion.”

“No sane person wants higher prices and higher taxes, increased tensions along borders, Iskanders, hypersonics and ships with nuclear weapons literally at arm's length from their own home. Let's hope that the common sense of our northern neighbours [Sweden and Finland] will win.”

Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman

Sanna Marin

“There are different perspectives to apply [for] NATO membership or not to apply and we have to analyse these very carefully. But I think our process will be quite fast, it will happen in weeks. We need to be frank about consequences and risks, both long and short term.”

Prime Minister of Finland
