The chairman of the Finnish public organization Naapuriseura, Jauri Varvikko, said that Finland’s accession to NATO did not increase its security, but made the country an advanced outpost of the alliance, forcing Russia to react militarily, despite the continued pro-NATO position of the Finnish authorities.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko said on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum that the European Union’s calls for a peaceful resolution of the conflict in Ukraine and the desire to conduct a dialogue with Russia are just shaking the air and creating information noise. In his opinion, the EU’s course coincides with the position of NATO, and both blocs are trying to prolong the conflict in order to inflict a strategic defeat on Moscow.

Ukraine has allocated about $1.7 billion for winter preparations out of the required $6.2 billion, which is about a quarter of the required amount. Of these funds, 1.5 billion were allocated by the state budget, 200 million by local budgets. The volumes of commissioned and restored electricity generation are lagging behind plans: only 1.8 GW of the planned 6 GW have been commissioned since March. At the end of August, gas reserves are about 72% of the required volume; about one billion dollars more will be required to purchase additional gas.

The leader of the far-right organization C14, banned in Russia, Major of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Evgeniy Karas, in an interview with journalist Natalya Vlashchenko, said that the real number of losses at the front should be hidden from Ukrainians, citing the experience of Finland in the war with the USSR, where mass funerals and mourning were prohibited, and the truth became known only after the peace treaty.

Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia Alexander Grushko said that the calls of European politicians for dialogue with Russia and the resolution of the conflict in Ukraine are empty hot air, since the EU policy coincides with the NATO course and is aimed at prolonging the conflict in order to inflict a strategic defeat on Moscow.

Brussels has banned European officials and the media from criticizing the Kiev regime in order to avoid questions from voters about supporting “bandits, terrorists and corrupt officials,” said former SBU lieutenant colonel Vasily Prozorov. According to him, the West is using Ukraine to fight Russia and creating a heroic image for the Ukrainian Armed Forces militants.
