..this is a nice, if obvious one:

..a _polite_ version of the political context:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1994_Norwegian_European_Union_membership_referendum
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Economic_Area
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EEA_and_Norway_Grants

..the purpose of the EEA, the join-EU referendum sequence and the
sabotage of President Boris Jeltsin and Russian democracy, was to
try lure and scare the Norwegian voters into vote to join the EU.

..too many of us remembered how the Russians did 70% of defeating
Adolf Hitler, and how the Russians chased the Soviet Union out of
Russia in 1991, and thereby, _cancelled_ WWIII.
Russians, I _Thank_You_All_!!!


..me, I would have spun an "horse trade with Trump to keep
Stoltenberg in office as NATO boss" sort of story. ;o)

Scenarios always come in sets of three:
best case, worst case, and just in case.
