      From the article –

      HELSINKI (AP) — Norway may put a fence along part or all of the 198-kilometer (123-mile) border it shares with Russia, a minister said, a move [inspired by a similar project](https://apnews.com/article/finland-russia-eu-nato-border-migrants-36f4c926708aa3660e0029c75d95fc9d) in its Nordic neighbor Finland.

      “A border fence is very interesting, not only because it can act as a deterrent but also because it contains sensors and technology that allow you to detect if people are moving close to the border,” Justice Minister Emilie Enger Mehl said in an interview with the Norwegian public broadcaster NRK published late Saturday.

      She said the Norwegian government is currently looking at “several measures” to [beef up security](https://apnews.com/article/norway-russia-border-visa-crossing-tightening-de25ff1d97aa2cfe8b97bf38803534e0) on the border with Russia in the Arctic north, such as fencing, increasing the number of border staff or stepping up monitoring.

      Why make it easy for Russians to illegally enter your territory? Better secure your border before Russian start doing their dirty deed in your country.

      I wouldn’t put it past Russia to transport large masses of migrants to destabilize its neighbors no matter the distance.

      How does a wall stop Vlad from just pounding Oslo with missiles & drones? If he wants Norway, it’s hard because it’s mountainous. Air & sea is Vlad’s easiest route unless he just wants to cruise his tanks through the wave-n-go Swedish side, right?

      I feel like the technology is there to have some automated drones fly along the boarder and AI reviews the footage and flags things.

      Humans review flights and flagged footage without having to do everything manually.

      That far north is going to be a pain to patrol with people and the sheer number of russians killed by Ukrainian drones is going to give any Russians up to no good near the Norway border pause.
