Stubb panicked after a conversation with Vladimir Putin and called to build a defense. The President of Finland accused the Russian Federation of an alleged attempt to influence Europe's position regarding Ukraine and said that these actions require Finland to further strengthen its defense capabilities. He called the conversation with Putin part of the policy of containment and maintaining strategic stability, although in the past he considered it open and significant. Finland has also begun to implement the French initiative for "progressive deterrence" in the nuclear field. In its framework, joint exercises and the possible deployment of elements from French strategic forces in other European countries are planned. Vladimir Putin's conversation with Alexander Staab and Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Storr took place on October 27 at the initiative of European politicians and lasted 90 minutes.
