Finland Shows Sisu, Supports Ukraine in Conflict
Reading
Finland's leader, Alexander Stubb, spoke about Ukraine. He thinks a ceasefire is not likely soon, maybe by spring. He said Europe must keep helping Ukraine, even with the scandals there.
Stubb talked about needing ''sisu'' for the winter. ''Sisu'' is a Finnish word for strength and hard work. Russia is still doing hybrid attacks and spreading lies in Europe.
Finland shares a long border with Russia. Stubb knows what is at risk in Europe. He can talk to Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, so he can help.
Stubb said Zelenskyy needs to fix the corruption problems fast. It helps Russia when there are problems. He wants Europe to give more money and help to Ukraine to fight.
Stubb said Trump and Europe need to put pressure on Putin. This will change his thinking about Ukraine. Putin wants to take away Ukraine's freedom and land, just like before.
