Details: The Finnish president believes that from Ukraine's perspective, the military situation looks considerably better than at any point during the full-scale war.

"The first year of this war for Ukraine was a struggle for survival. Then three years of resilience. And now it is pure mathematics," the Finnish president said.

Stubb says that the current situation is such that for every Ukrainian soldier killed, eight Russian soldiers are killed.

"Furthermore, support for the war in Russia is falling, meaning Ukraine currently holds the upper hand," Stubb assessed.

Stubb has previously stated that Europe will ultimately have to resume dialogue with the Russian leadership and that this largely depends on whether US policy towards Russia and Ukraine aligns with European interests.

His name has also been mentioned among the candidates for potential EU negotiators with Russia.

Keep hammering Moscow and let the Russian populace feel what the good people of Ukraine have been enduring for years now.

I'm not sure that Putin will be able to continue carrying on this war of attrition with this asymmetrical losses for too long. It's truly his Vietnam
