Finnish President Stubb:

In 1944, Finland kept its independence but lost 10% of territory and sovereignty to choose alliances. I’d never want that for Ukraine.

Finnish President Stubb:

Putin failed all his goals. He planned to take Ukraine in 4 days — it’s 4 years.

He sought to divide the West — it’s more united than ever. He wanted less NATO spending — Trump raised it to 5%.

Trump:

Europe is buying oil from Russia. I don’t want them buying oil — and the sanctions they impose are not tough enough.

I am willing to impose sanctions, but they must toughen theirs in line with what I’m doing.

Trump's Ukraine envoy Kellogg:

If Putin was winning, he’d be in Kyiv, west of the Dnipro, on Odesa, and he’d have changed the government. Russia is in fact losing this war.

Trump's Ukraine envoy Kellogg:

This is not the Russia, the Soviet Union, that I knew in the middle of the Cold War.

This is a different Russia. They talk a big game but I would be very worried if I was Putin.

Putin sometimes rattles about his nuclear weapons, the US, UK and France are nuclear powers too.

Trump's Ukraine envoy Kellogg:

We had a discussion in the Oval; they were talking about the "primacy" of the Russian military. I said, "we would kick their ass."

They are not as good as Putin says they are; for that, I give credit to the Ukrainian military.

I don't think anybody should be afraid of the Russian military. I don't believe they have the capacity to march to Berlin or anywhere else.
