Reasons why Russia can’t just go to war with Finland and Sweden the same way as Ukraine:
Ukraine was carrying out ethnic cleansing in the Donbass, Russia can’t justify a war against Finland or Sweden in the same way.
They have already long since been de-facto part of the West, the West was still in the process of sinking it’s teeth into Ukraine and training them for inter-operability.
They were already protected by the European Commission.
The terrain up there sucks for invading.
Russia is still fighting Ukraine, expanding on more fronts at the same time isn’t exactly wise.

All very good points.
But most importantly, what would it even achieve? What would even be the goal of a war there? Russia has nothing to gain from doing it.
If they were to go to war against a NATO or EU member it would be one of the Baltic chihuahuas to stop their stupid yapping once and for all.
I hope they do it ASAP
