Finland's leader, Alexander Stubb, recently shared his thoughts on the Ukraine war. He believes U. S. President Donald Trump is applying significant pressure on Russia. Stubb thinks this is a good thing for Western countries. He made these comments at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Stubb mentioned that peace talks are getting stronger. This is partly because Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, is helping U. S. envoy Steve Witkoff.
Stubb is hopeful about the peace process. He supports a 20-point plan for Ukraine. This plan includes security guarantees and help to rebuild the country. However, he doubts Russia will agree to it. Trump had a good meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in Davos. He told Russian President Vladimir Putin that the war must end. Stubb hopes Trump keeps pushing Russia. The situation is complex. Many factors are at play. It's not clear if Russia will accept the peace plan. Domestic politics in Russia might be a big reason why.
