Finnish President Alexander Stubb held a telephone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Stubb said Russia had carried out large-scale overnight attacks against civilian targets in Ukraine and reiterated Finland's strong support for Ukraine.

Emphasizing the need to strengthen Ukraine's air defense system, Stubb added that the latest developments in the peace negotiations were also discussed during the call.

Stubb noted that Ukraine has long stated its readiness for a ceasefire and peace talks, while Russia has not demonstrated a similar position.

Stubb said, "We will continue our efforts toward a lasting and just peace."
