Sanna Marin's resignation sparks speculation about Finland's NATO membership.
TL;DR Summary

Moscow has downplayed the significance of Finland joining NATO, but as the alliance gets closer and the Arctic becomes more accessible, Russia is making moves that indicate growing concern about a part of its frontier that has long been calm. Russia has announced plans to increase the size of its military, beef up its forces in northwestern Russia, and reestablish the Leningrad Military District.
