It relies on Iranian weapons, it relies on North Korean soldiers. How much worse can it get?&#8221; he said. The deployment of North Korean troops would constitute an &#8220;escalation&#8221; of the conflict, said Stubb.<\/p>\n<p>Finland, which shares a 1,340 km (830 mile) border with Russia, joined NATO last year in a historic policy shift brought on by Russia&#8217;s invasion of Ukraine. Stubb, who will make a state visit to China on Oct. 28-31, said he would tell President Xi Jinping there could be no peace deal without Ukraine&#8217;s involvement. He would urge China not to support Russia in any way, &#8220;especially not with dual use materials and goods that can be used for weapons.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/finlands-president-north-korean-troops-ukraine-would-signal-russian-despair-2024-10-22\/\">Reuters World<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/finlands-president-north-korean-troops-in-ukraine-would-signal-russian-despair\/\">Finland\u2019s president: North Korean troops in Ukraine would signal Russian despair<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[555,16597,16598,559],"class_list":["post-134813","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-csr-news-en","tag-finlands-president-north","tag-korean-troops","tag-ukraine"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134813","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134813"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134813\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134813"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
