Finland is preparing its next air defense package for Ukraine, reported President Alexander Stubb at the Nordic-Baltic Eight summit in Kyiv. The package will address some of Ukraine's most critical needs, according to Stubb. Additionally, Finland announced positive news regarding energy support for Ukraine. Stubb emphasized that a significant portion of the American administration's focus is currently on Iran, while U.S. President's Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner continue to engage with Ukraine and Ukrainian authorities.
Stubb believes the initiative largely depends on Russia, noting that the Ukrainians are seeking pragmatic solutions in negotiations, but Russia is not providing concrete results. He also mentioned that the American side will not visit Moscow or Kyiv until there is a chance for substantive progress in the negotiation process. Stubb reported that he will share his assessment and conclusions with Washington after spending two days in Kyiv, emphasizing that as small states, Finland provides information and hopes to find a solution, but the problem lies with Russia.
