Promoting the peace of Ukraine’s “Trump” has sparked a lot of confusion and comments. Here are Finnish perspectives on the rapid twists and turns of the United States.
The Finnish State leadership is attentive to the US Vice President JD VANCE Yesterday’s performance, both in a strange and understanding or praise.
Vance’s talk at the Munich Security Meeting had been expected. Many were surprised when, instead of the Ukrainian peace plan, Vance used his speech mostly for European criticism.
Vance was highly criticized by the European countries and blamed them for restricting freedom of expression and fearing voters.

“Packaging messed up”

“The United States has not clearly chosen its line or the lines are changing,” Valtonen said yesterday after the speech.
Republic Alexander Stubb He described Vance’s speech on Friday night as confusing, but also sees positive.
At a news conference in Munich, Stubb said the United States had a revival to Europe.
Today, Stubb thanked US senators for the meeting and hoped for a deepening cooperation with Congress.

“But when you look deeper, the big basics are in the right direction,” Orpo described the US line.
According to him, Donald Trump’s second presidential term has been exactly what he could expect. According to Orpo, this is a new “Trump” approach to the United States.
– Now that it is all here, it is confusing. But we need to take it calmly and focus on the essentials, or peace in Ukraine and the European security arrangements, and do not run after every comment from the United States.
