Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo joined “One Nation with Brian Kilmeade” on Saturday to react to Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson signals her intention to apply for NATO membership. MIKE POMPEO: It’s the case that I think Vladimir Putin can now see that NATO is real and serious, but I think he always knew that this was not an offensive threat to him. To claim that NATO is in some way a danger to the Russian people is simply nonsense. It’s his excuse to attack what he did today here in Ukraine. Thus, Sweden and Finland pose no threat to Russia, to Vladimir Putin or to the Russian people. And we must welcome them. I think they can see that being in the middle of nowhere, as Ukraine was where it was not clear whether the guarantees given as part of the ’94 Budapest Memoranda would be real or no. I think these two countries can see that it is better to be with this strong entity. SEE THE ENTIRE INTERVIEW HERE:
