A supporter of Donald Trump has sharply criticized Russia’s demands regarding NATO, as well as the fruitless peace process.
On Friday, numerous international media outlets reported that, during peace negotiations concerning the war in Ukraine, Russia demanded that NATO withdraw from its borders and cease its eastward expansion.
While the German newspaper *Bild* reported that Russia had called for the cancellation of Finland’s NATO membership and a ban on military bases in the Baltic states, *The New York Times* reported that the Kremlin had demanded a complete return to the defensive alliance’s borders as they existed in 1997.
In Finland, policymakers have flatly rejected Russia’s negotiating demands. Minister of Defence Antti Häkkänen (National Coalition Party) described the proposal put forward by the Russian negotiators as “outrageous.” Finland’s NATO membership is not a matter for negotiation, Häkkänen stated.
