My, mustn't Puffy feel stoopid today.

On Sunday afternoon, President Sauli Niinistö and Prime Minister Sanna Marin (SDP) announced that Finland will seek to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (Nato).

Niinistö formally made the announcement in Finnish, Swedish and English, saying that Finland was entering a new era.

"This is a historic day," said the head of state, noting that he had begun the day by visiting the graves of war dead on Finnish Memorial Day.

"These decisions will strengthen, not weaken, our security," said Marin.
