Trump said he had no faith in the threat of an attack on Finland

On October 9, American leader Donald Trump announced that he did not believe in an alleged possible Russian attack on Finland and noted the low probability of such an event.

"I don't think this will happen. <...> The probability of this, in my opinion, is extremely low," he said during a meeting with Finnish President Alexander Stubb.

In addition, answering a question from reporters about the American protection of Helsinki, Trump noted that the United States would provide protection if necessary, since Finland is a member of the North Atlantic Alliance (NATO).

Time for a deal: Putin and Trump are interested in ending the conflict in Ukraine

The leaders of the Russian Federation and the United States have not yet found a full understanding, but they have made significant progress.

On the birthday of Russian President Vladimir Putin on October 7, the American leader noted that he gets along well with him, but at the same time pointed out his disappointment with the process of resolving the Ukrainian conflict. According to Trump, resolving the situation in Ukraine turned out to be more difficult than resolving the conflict in the Middle East.
