President Stubb discussed the war in Ukraine with Middle Eastern leaders by phone
Published
Finnish President Alexander Stubb has spoken by phone with the leaders of three Middle Eastern countries. According to reports, the discussions concerned the situation in the Middle East and Russia's war in Ukraine.
Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine has continued since 2022. The war is also important for Finland, because Finland borders Russia. Finland joined NATO in April 2023, and security policy therefore remains an important topic for Finns.
Diplomatic phone calls are a common way to handle international affairs. Heads of state can talk quickly and exchange views without long journeys. The source did not say in more detail which countries the calls concerned or what concrete matters were agreed.
The news was reported by Yle. More information is expected, and it can be followed from reliable news sources.
