The role of Finnish President Alexander Stubb in the Ukraine settlement process will be assessed by Russia based on how constructive his contribution could be.
Responding to journalists’ questions in St. Petersburg about Stubb’s participation in the talks, Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary to the Russian president, said, "We will see how constructive a contribution he can make."

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, Finnish President Alexander Stubb, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store and U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff took part in the multilateral Ukraine settlement talks that concluded in Oslo. Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of the U.S. leader, joined the talks remotely.
