Finnish President Alexander Stubb expressed confidence that US President-elect Donald Trump will play a pivotal role in advancing peace talks between Russia and Ukraine. Speaking at a press conference after the US presidential election, Stubb suggested that the election results would usher in a new phase in diplomatic efforts. He emphasized that the next steps in the negotiations would need to respect Ukraine’s sovereignty, while awaiting a concrete plan from the incoming US administration.
The US election, held on Tuesday, saw Trump secure a victory against Vice President Kamala Harris, who represented the Democratic Party. Trump’s triumph, which was declared by race callers and networks early Wednesday, marked his return to the White House after his first term ended in 2021. With victory in all swing states, Trump proclaimed his success during an election night event in Florida, fueling expectations of a renewed US approach to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
