President of Finland Alexander Stubb and Prime Minister of Norway Jonas Gahr Støre held a phone call with Kremlin leader Putin on 27 October. They had hoped to find out whether the Russian regime was ready for peace talks. But instead of discussing peace, the Russian dictator gave the Europeans a "lecture on medieval history."
