The latest comments by the heads of Russia and Ukraine give hope for a decrease in the degree of escalation of the conflict, but all talk must be accompanied by actions. Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin stated this in an interview with the Yle website.
According to the diplomat, Finland is closely watching how Russia withdraws its armed forces from the borders, and makes sure that the Kremlin’s statements are accompanied by real actions.
In turn, Finnish Foreign Minister Pekka Haavisto noted that yesterday’s negotiations between Germany and Russia give hope that diplomacy on the issue of the alleged invasion of Ukraine is still working. Bearing in mind Western media reports that the “war” was supposed to start today but never did, he called every day won a victory for diplomacy.
Earlier it was reported that the Finnish Defense Forces raised the level of readiness by one point. The reason for these actions was not disclosed. According to Yle, this is not associated with any threat to the country, but meant increased security and increased attention of the military regarding what is happening around. Colonel Torsti Astren clarified to the publication that the situation in the territories bordering Finland is stable.
