Stubbe: peace in Ukraine is unlikely until spring 2026

According to hvylya.net: The President of Finland, Alexander Stubbe, called on Europe to support Ukraine in its struggle against hybrid attacks from Russia. In an interview with the Associated Press, he emphasized that the war in Ukraine will last a long time, and it is important not to stop supporting Kyiv.

Stubbe hopes for the start of dialogue by spring next year, but does not expect quick ceasefires or peace talks this year. He also reminded about his country's experience in wars with Russia, which led to a change in Finland's position and its membership in NATO after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

'If he accepts at least one of the ten ideas - that's already good,' added the politician regarding U.S. President Donald Trump. Stubbe also supported new sanctions against 'Lukoil' and 'Rosneft', calling for strengthened support for Ukraine in this confrontation.

It should be noted that earlier, the President of Finland announced a possible meeting between the Presidents of Ukraine and Russia, Volodymyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin, in an attempt to resolve the conflict in Donbas.
