The Kremlin has targeted Germany and France, forcing them to believe in the futility of aiding Ukraine through hybrid attacks.

Axar.az reports that this was stated by Finland's Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen.

"It's time to grow up. Putin is a dictator who only understands power. No one wants peace more than Ukraine. But if anyone thinks that stopping arms supplies will end the war, I can only say one thing: this will not lead to the end of the war; it will lead to the end of Ukraine," she stated.

She noted that in the future, EU countries will need to spend more on defense than NATO's GDP target of 2%.
