I don’t think it’s a bluff, I think they’re trying to provoke Russia to do something, anything, that will give NATO a chance to confront them.
From Finland’s perspective, they join NATO 2 months ago (as NATO is clearly provoking the Russians into WW3), just to guarantee that they’ll be the first to be sacked if something happens. Not just that, but Finland is so close to the Russian capital that Russia can’t even run the risk of not “addressing” them if there is so much as an unexpected blip on their radar. This is a recipe for disaster.
Russia needs to neutralize Finnish threat before Finland joins NATO. Finland's greatest strength was Finlandization during the Cold War and Finland should have never abandoned that policy.
In effect, begging Russia to invade and create the strategic port they've needed for a long time.
I’m not sure why they would offer themselves up as a sacrifice in event of an increasingly likely war with Russia.
Call it a desperate bluff by going 'all-in' and hoping for a fold.

She and 4 of her female ministers are WEF YGL.
Most Finnish politicians are connected to WEF some way.
