So Finland and Sweden have governments "installed by USA in a coup"?

That's just being obtuse to be obtuse. You and I both understand the difference between the choices that Finland or Sweden made and the "choices" that Ukraine or Iraq made.
So Ukraine can’t have choices without russians getting all murderous about it but it’s fine when Finns and Swedes do?
If a political party came to power in Finland or Sweden outside the normal electoral process and decided to align the country with Russia, would the EU and the USA call them usurpers and terrorists and start military intervention to liberate Finland or Sweden? Or would they not?
The only one who started the military intervention here is russia.

russia attacked Ukraine.

Ukrainians had enough of kremlin puppets.

This is relevant how?

I asked about a hypothetical scenario: would the USA violently suppress a Pro-Russia Party of Finland. That seems to have caused a crash and you fell back to your default rhetoric.

No. Vatnik said:

> Just to clarify: the "we" who would like to join is a government that was installed by the USA in a coup. What kind of "attacking and oppressing" happened before the coup?

No, USA doesn't violently suppress Orban or Fritz.
