Finland president says world now in 'colder situation' than during Cold War

[AZProgressive]

Finland President Sauli Niinistö said on Sunday that the world is in a "colder situation" than during the Cold War, adding that it now seems much more "vulnerable."

“I think that we are actually almost in a colder situation than we were during that traditional Cold War, because then we had at least some agreements between the United States and Soviet Union limiting arms and so on," Niinistö said during an appearance on CNN’s "State of the Union."

"Now we do not have actually anything, no agreements anymore. So this makes the situation, in my opinion, much more vulnerable,” he added.

1. not true...

Trump's four hellacious years of authoritarian ass-kissing was much more terrifying...to accommodate his "friends" he removed sanctions, pulled out of the Iran Nuclear Deal, NAFTA, the Paris Accords, the UN Human Rights Council, ended funding for the UN Relief and Works Agency, imposed tariffs on China, and was on the cusp of withdrawing from NATO...all this so Putin & Co. would allow him into their "club"...

Today, world leaders are united against Putin, no longer anxious an unstable wannabe dictator is at the helm of the most powerful country in the world and in possession of nuclear codes...
