Mats Uotila claimed that the justifications presented to the Italian press were noble, but in his opinion, Sanna Marin had left politics immediately after the lost parliamentary elections. According to Uotila, Marin betrayed her voters because Finns did not want her to continue as prime minister, and the role of a regular member of parliament was not acceptable to her. https://t.co/Z2Nxz4yHBE #poliikka #Suomi #vaalit (translated)
Jarno Limnell assessed that Volodymyr Zelensky made a strategically skillful move by suggesting that Ukraine hold elections if Vladimir Putin agreed to a 60-day ceasefire. According to Limnell, Zelensky linked Ukraine's internal political issue to Russia's military decision and brought the matter to Donald Trump's attention. He believed the ball was in Moscow's court, where, according to him, there was no genuine desire for peace. #Ukraina #Zelenskyi #Venäjä (translated)

Henri Vanhanen wrote that Volodymyr Zelensky was ready to hold elections in Ukraine if Vladimir Putin agreed to a 60-day ceasefire. Vanhanen noted that this was not a new concession, as Zelensky had made the same proposal in February and required sufficient security guarantees to hold the elections. Vanhanen interpreted the proposal as a message to Donald Trump, who, in his view, had repeatedly questioned Zelensky’s position and called for elections in Ukraine. According to Vanhanen, holding elections would require the United States to get Russia to stop hostilities for a sufficient period. He found it contradictory that Ukraine was being asked to hold elections in the midst of an invasion, while Russia had not agreed to a ceasefire that would allow for it. Vanhanen also pondered how strong Trump’s pressure on Zelensky had become, referring to Trump’s recent statements regarding Ukrainian leadership. He believed that the replacement of the Ukrainian president should not become a substantive goal of peace negotiations, but rather that Ukrainians should choose their own leader. According to Vanhanen, Trump should have used his influence to promote a ceasefire rather than forcing Ukraine to defend the legitimacy of its democracy. #Ukraina #Zelenskyi #Trump (translated)

Sture Fjäder wrote that his party was in third place and the support for the PS had increased. According to him, the party's support would not grow unless its chairman announced that the National Coalition Party would not join a blue-red government. Fjäder mentioned that the discussion was heated about whether the National Coalition Party would join a blue-red government instead of a right-center government, and estimated that this would undermine the party's support. #vaalit2027 https://t.co/FI3ByOSP3i #vaalit #politiikka #puolueet (translated)
Mr. Spede wrote that the Greens had had to resort to the help of a man because, according to him, the aggression he described as sharp and distasteful was driving away voters who had manners or sense. He estimated that Niinistö would drive the remaining voters elsewhere. https://t.co/w7XV5opzeu #Politiikka #Suomi #Vaalit (translated)
Niko A. Kauko pondered what would happen to the EU-Finland's support for Ukraine and the cooperation agreements between the countries if Ukraine were to hold elections, choose a new president, and the war were to end. He estimated that with a change in presidency, relations between Ukraine and Russia could also improve. Kauko asked whether Finland's support for Ukraine had ultimately been directed more towards Zelensky and the war than towards Ukraine itself. He referred to Stubbs' statement that the war was "his war," and wondered if Finland's "unwavering Ukraine first" line would fade as the war receded. Kauko described the war fundamentally as a great power conflict and believed that neither side had clean hands. According to him, Finland should not have participated in the conflict other than through diplomacy and mediation. He considered such an approach wise, which, in his assessment, was no longer visible in Finland's stance. #Ukraina #EU #sota (translated)
