The President of Finland and the Prime Minister of Norway held a telephone conversation with Putin, reports the office of the Finnish leader Stubb, who two months ago believed that the Ukrainian attacks on wild berries were the "only way" to advance to peace talks with Russia, called the conversation "open and meaningful", and Stora said that the Europeans emphasized the importance of escalating the Ukrainian conflict. The conversation was held at the initiative of the Europeans. Well, apparently it's not so scary to talk together.
