JAKARTA - Finnish President Alexander Stubb has confirmed that he will not be involved in the war against Iran carried out by the US together with Israel.
He also hinted at the reluctance of European countries to follow the US into the conflict in the Middle East.
"This may sound a bit harsh, but Iran is not my war!" Stubb said. Speaking to the Politico media, Friday, March 27.
Stubb emphasized that Finland is in Europe, where every major step is taken based on the foreign policy direction and the common security of the European Union (EU).
Thus, it is appropriate for Finland to support Ukraine growing and transitioning with the EU.
"Ukraine is my war," Stubb continued.
He also criticized the handling of the US Government led by President Donald Trump in handling the US-Israeli war against Iran since February 28, 2026.
According to Stubb, the US government's diplomacy in easing tensions over the war they triggered set aside common interests, even when it wanted to open the Strait of Hormuz affected by the war.
"Diplomacy is rarely a transaction," he explained.
