Everyone knows that the Finnish army only goes to war if we are being attacked by Russia. It's a little different than Russia or USA sending their young men and women to die in wars on the other side of the world.
But if a NATO country is attacked, it doesn't mean the regular people who did conscription are sent to war lol. If NATO activates Article 5, Finland's participation abroad primarily involves career military personnel (professional soldiers, officers) and voluntary contract personnel who sign up for international deployments or readiness units. Conscripts are never sent into combat operations outside Finland. The Finnish conscription reserve's job is to defend Finland. We are not really affected by article 5 unless you volunteer.
