If the European Union continues its rearmament drive and military supplies to Ukraine, it risks entering into direct confrontation with Russia, Armando Mema, a member of the Finnish national-conservative Freedom Alliance party, said.

“The EU has been active in financing a proxy war against Russia with clear intent of wanting a strategic defeat,” he wrote on X.

“We should take into account Russia’s rightful concern about security or we will soon end up in a direct confrontation if we keep ignoring Russia's demands for security,” Mema stressed.
