Finland’s position right on NATO’s frontier makes these so-called Russia–Ukraine “peace talks” in Turkey feel especially significant — and suspicious.
Putin has a long history of using diplomacy as a delaying tactic. Right now, Russia is offering talks “without preconditions”… while still launching strikes on Ukrainian cities. It feels less like genuine diplomacy and more like psychological warfare — and Finns know this game better than most.
I wrote an investigative-style article that breaks this all down: how Russia uses the illusion of peace to divide the West, freeze frontlines, and frame Ukraine as the obstacle. It’s worth a read if you’re trying to see what’s really behind the Istanbul summit. Id love feedback!

The Ceasefire Mirage: How Russia Is Weaponizing Peace Talks in Turkey
Would love to hear how others in Finland view this — is there any real chance of peace, or are we watching another calculated move by Moscow?

Easiest way to detect whether Russians are lying when they are speaking is to check whether their lips move. They will break every promise and deal they make, and all those who negotiate with them should remember that.
IT’s pretty clear how these “peace talks” will go. Western powers will ask for two sides to agree to ceasefire. Russia will demand unconditional surrender as a precondition to ceasefire. Ukraine will say no. Russia will claim it wants peace, but Ukraine refuses to “acknowledge their security concerns” and that “Western diplomats sabotaged the talks”.
