It’s official! With its stance, the @NHL has decided to serve as an advertisement for Russia’s imperialist war into the 2026–27 season as well.For the fifth consecutive year, the NHL’s position will help prolong 🇷🇺 war, leading to the deaths of far more people.Please share this!

[Dominik Hasek @hasek_dominik]

This is insane! The @NHL is well aware that this post supports Russia's worst criminals, and the NHL will bear responsibility for more people killed and maimed in Russia's imperialist war in Ukraine. And yet, they did it. For the NHL, human lives do not come first!

I just spoke with @Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz. NATO stands in full solidarity with Germany after the Russian hybrid attack in Leipzig on 4 August.

The evidence is clear. And I welcome the measures announced by Germany in response. NATO will continue to strengthen our ability to deter and defend all Allies against any threat – including malign actions like those seen in Leipzig and elsewhere across the Alliance.

Russia’s attempts to intimidate us, to undermine our unity and our willingness to support Ukraine are futile and will fail. Our support to Ukraine is unwavering, as is our ironclad commitment to NATO’s collective defence

@alexstubb Glad självständighet herr President!

Finland is ranked the Happiest Country in the World for eight years running. Thank you. Kiitos!

For us Finns being happy or content with life has at least 5,6 million reasons. In other words we all have our own take on happiness.

I personally think that happiness is closely linked to meaning. And meaning often comes from making others happy. That feeling when you help a friend and bring a smile to their face. In today’s tumultuous world we all need it.

Life is never perfect and no one can be happy all the time, and sometimes circumstance makes it difficult. But getting the basics right - security, freedom and equality - is a good start.

So, next time you are thinking about visiting a new place, why don’t you come and enjoy Finnish hospitality, nature and food. And if you are brave, enough you can try one of our 2,2 million saunas.

Finland, even cooler than you think!

Leaders of Europe,
What are you waiting for? There will be no miracle, no breakthrough, no sigh of relief. Putin is now wearing camo.
Take his frozen assets. Sanction Russia as much as possible. Fully arm, fund and integrate Ukraine asap. Dithering merely increases the cost.

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

America, give this a listen. This is how our closest allies now view us. @MarshSongs

[Elina Valtonen @elinavaltonen]

We Finns know Russia. Finland, a neighbouring country to Russia, consistently remained an independent democracy through the Second World War and the Cold War.

Take it from us: Putin has no intention to stop his expansionist pursuit. He will enter talks, enjoy the limelight, and take whatever he possibly can without making any genuine concessions.

Russia must be kept at bay and within its own borders with credible economic and military pressure. That is what ’peace through strength’ is all about.

Ukraine and Europe deserve to live in peace. There is no panacea. An isolated quick fix leads to more trouble down the line - also to the US.

So far Russia has shown no interest in peace. Ahead of any talks, Russia could signal goodwill by, for instance, returning forcibly relocated Ukrainian children back to their parents. 

Lasting peace needs a comprehensive plan for the years to come. A negotiated settlement should encompass a process, ensuring Ukraine’s and Europe’s security, including containment of the multi-domain threat Russia is posing.

This process could also manage a gradual and conditional easing of sanctions pressure. It can’t be a one-off deal.

This is the time for Europe. Europe is stepping up: committing even more to security and further increasing defence spending. And no matter what, Europe will be at the tables deciding about Europe. It’s our people, our values, our future.

But defending the free world takes the US, too. This space is closely being watched also in the Indo-Pacific. A secure and stable Europe is in America's interest and going forward, the US will need strong allies.
