Hmmm, wikipedia.org says Finland's numbers are 23,850 active duty and 233,000 reserve. So not sure what's going on with the post in the YouTube video. Maybe the post is the government's *wish list* proposal, which would be a helluva surge in soldiers under arms.
Active Duty / Reserve Russia 1,134,00 / 1,500,000 Ukraine 730,000 / 0 Turkey 355,200 / 378,700 France 202,000 / 38,500 Germany 179,850 / 34,100 Poland 164,100 / 37,500 Italy 161,850 / 14,500 UK 141,100 / 70,450 Spain 122,200 / 13,800 Finland 23,850 / 233,000 (Finland's reserves are significant)
Finland's huge Reserves numbers give them an overall soldier strength above even France.
Looking at each country's population makes Finland's number of soldiers under arms even more incredible. If you have 2 arms and 2 legs and most of your fingers and toes, Finland probably gives you an assault rifle and snow boots.
Because Finland has had experience of russia.
Yes, indeed. And Russia's world famous trick of suffering very high casualties compared to their opponents is continuing today in Ukraine.
