"During the presentation of the credentials, I expressed my sincere gratitude to President Stubb for his leadership and personal contribution to strengthening international efforts towards establishing lasting and just peace in Ukraine.

We also discussed ways to continue practical assistance to Ukraine from Finland, outlined plans for further actions: new packages of weapons and support for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, a shelter coalition, and the implementation of joint business projects.

It will be a great honor for me to represent our state in Finland and continue serving the people of Ukraine."
