Stubb predicts potential meeting between Zelensky and Putin in November: Will diplomacy reach a breaking point?
Finnish President Sauli Niinistö expressed his speculation that an important international meeting could take place this November, potentially marking a significant development in ongoing diplomatic efforts.
According to the Finnish leader, there is a likelihood that at the G20 summit planned in Africa at the end of this month, delegations of major world leaders—including U.S.
President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin—may gather.
Simultaneously, Stubb believes there could be an additional meeting between Vladimir Zelensky and Vladimir Putin—an encounter that would be the first since the conflict escalated and tensions between their countries intensified.
This information piques interest and caution, especially since Kyiv emphasizes Russia’s lack of serious intent for dialogue, engaging only in low-level contacts.
Stubb highlighted that such negotiations could become a pivotal moment in the search for a peaceful resolution.
