This is a defining moment of history, where democracy has to show strength, adds Marin, who became the world’s youngest premier when she was elected to Finland's top job in 2019.
Russia’s attack on Ukraine, now two years in, is only the “forefront” of a much larger and wider ongoing “war of values”, says Sanna Marin, former Prime Minister of Finland.
“If democratic countries send out a message that we are weak, we’re not behind our values, we’re not behind these rules-based order and we will let Russia and Putin run over Ukraine, then the whole rule-based order system will collapse,” says Marin to applause at the Amundi World Investment Forum in Paris on June 13.
