Valtonen emphasized that European leaders should refrain from telephone conversations with the Russian dictator.

The most important thing is to understand that we should not compete for the attention of the Kremlin. It will not make sense if the heads of European countries make coordinated or uncoordinated calls to Putin,

The minister emphasized that a joint response is necessary, but not only from the US, but primarily in coordination with Ukraine.

She also added that new sanctions against the Russian Federation, including restrictions on its so-called “shadow fleet” will be discussed at a meeting of foreign ministers on Tuesday.

We will remind

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz had a telephone conversation with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin for the first time in almost two years.

During a telephone conversation with Putin, Scholz called on him to end the war against Ukraine and start peace negotiations.
