00:00What I have said with some European leaders is that we have now reached a stage in this war
00:05where Ukraine is in a position of strength.
00:09And then we have to ask ourselves the question,
00:13our partners, allies and friends, the United States,
00:16do they drive a foreign policy vis-a-vis Russia or Ukraine
00:22which is always in the interest of Europe, of Finland or Lithuania?
00:27If the answer to that question is, well, not always,
00:31then we need to think about, okay, what do we do about it?
00:35This is not about legitimizing a leader who has started an illegal war of aggression in Ukraine,
00:44but it's about finding a solution to a conflict to which there seems to be no end.
00:51And we can do it now at some stage because Ukraine is in a position of strength.
