Finland is the Happiest country in the World for the 9th year running. We also climbed up the world brand index from 7th to 5th.
I am often asked why we do well in these rankings.
I do not think there is a magic potion, but it helps to have a society which strives towards freedom, equality and justice.
The basis of it all is a welfare society, a robust education system, a sense of security and a close attachment to nature.
There is no such thing as a perfectly happy society, but providing some building blocks that give us a chance to live a meaningful life, to help others, will nudge us in the right direction during the journey of life.

Excellent from Alexander Stubb, President of Finland,
"What has Russia achieved in the past 4 years?"
"Taken 20% of Ukraine"
"1 million casualties and dead"
"Decreased it's sphere of influence"
"Russian economy, 30% inflation, 16% interest rates, 0% growth, no more reserves, incapacity to pay soldiers when the war ends"
"I'm more worried about Russia's unwillingness to end this war because they cannot afford to keep going"
"Than about Russia's capability to win this war"
"Let's keep things in perspective"
"This war has been a strategic failure of Putin"
"He increased the size of NATO"
"He made Ukraine European"
"He increased the defence budgets of European states"
"Are we able to defend ourselves? Yes we are"
First and foremost, I want to thank President @RTErdogan for organizing the opportunity for direct negotiations – that was exactly the signal we had received. The Ukrainian side confirmed its readiness, and today, we are here in the capital, in Ankara.
Ukraine is represented by a top-level delegation – the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, my Office, the military, and representatives of all our intelligence agencies – ready to make any decisions that could lead to a long-awaited just peace.
We will begin with a meeting with President Erdoğan and with the entire Turkish delegation. We are in contact with the U.S. side – I believe they will be present in Türkiye at a high level as well.
I have not yet received official confirmation regarding the Russian level of representation. But from what we can observe, it appears theatrical. We will decide on our next steps after the conversation with President Erdoğan.
We will have several hours for an important discussion and very important decisions. It is essential to understand the level of the Russian delegation, what mandate they hold, and whether they are authorised to make any decisions at all – because we all know who actually makes decisions in Russia.
God is great. I flew home for a life-threatening emergency surgery for our baby that I’m so grateful went well. I want to say thank you for all the support. Tour resumes Friday.
