To survive this winter, you will need "sisu", said Alexander Stubb: this Finnish word, which does not have a literal translation, means endurance, resilience and tenacity. As the publication notes, "sisu" will also be needed by Stubb himself - after all, he is one of the key European mediators between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi. AR also reminds that Finland is a small country, which, moreover, shares a 1,340-kilometer border with Russia.
Therefore, it is Alexander Stubb who must understand how to resist a much larger opponent. In the 1940s, after two wars with Russia, Finland lost about 10% of its territory and agreed to military neutrality. This neutral position changed only after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Then Finland joined NATO. By the way, Alexander Stubb himself regularly communicates and plays golf with US President Donald Trump.
