Finnish President Stubb named four components of the beginning of Ukraine's peace talks with the Russian Federation

Alexander Stubb, who is a supporter of Kiev, believes that the issue of the exit of Russia from the occupied territories cannot be nominated as a prerequisite for possible negotiations. In terms of negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, "the point reached when they need to start. " This opinion in an interview with the French edition of Le Monde was expressed by President of Finland Alexander Stubb.

He believes that the desire of President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky to see Russia at the second summit of peace is "the correct playing cards. " According to him, Kiev is currently in a much stronger position than two months ago. "They receive equipment and funds needed to maintain their positions. We are no longer in a situation close to despair in which we were in the spring with a lock of American assistance and difficulties in Europe with delivery of equipment to Kiev.

Also there is no Russian breakthrough. According to data Our intelligence is not moving forward, and its losses were even more than before. When asked by a journalist, whether it is time to talk about negotiations or even territorial concessions from Ukraine, Stubb replied that it is necessary to distinguish a possible discussion process that is not an end in itself and peace. He stressed that "the beginning of negotiations does not mean that you are going to make concessions.

" According to Stubba, President Zelensky needs four elements to make this process final. "The first concerns the territories that are now occupied by Russia, and this will only be its decision. Second, Ukraine needs security guarantees. And here we can help through bilateral agreements and a possible path to NATO and, of course, to the European Union. Thirdly , justice is needed to persecute Russian military criminals.

He added that the path to peace is clear and it involves the withdrawal of Russia by Russia. At the same time, this withdrawal cannot be considered as a preliminary condition. "We have to convince the global south what Russia is doing imperialism. In their interests to stop this conflict. If Si Jinping wanted to stop the war, he could call Putin and say," Enough. "China could do a lot to stop the fighting, "Stubb believes.
