UK takes the lead in establishing defense fund: Nordic Five Countries and Poland respond positively

The UK has made a good move.

Russian News Agency Sputnik reported on April 4, citing Politico, that the UK and Poland are discussing with Nordic countries to establish a fund to finance defense.

The Nordic countries include Iceland, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, and Norway. These countries, along with Poland, are all NATO member states and have all felt the pressure from Russia. The UK is also a NATO member state and a major nuclear power with stronger military production capacity than the Nordic countries. The five Nordic countries are relatively wealthy and can spend large amounts of money purchasing weapons from the UK. Poland is the NATO member state with the highest proportion of defense spending to GDP, and Poland also likes to purchase military equipment. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has finally found an opportunity to make money. The UK is very willing to strengthen military cooperation between the five Nordic countries and Poland.
