Sure, this is probably normal in warfare.

What isn't normal is then inviting the president of the offending country to join the G7 and also publicly tell the media in Finland that you trust that president over your own intelligence agencies.

This makes sense. But indirect conflicts while governments still maintaining relationships are kinda normalized I think.

Not if we're talking about killing soldiers. A country as powerful as ours normally has some serious repercussions for that. Economic sanctions at the least, sometimes retaliatory strikes. But we certainly wouldn't see our President treating the leader of the offending country like his greatest ally. Trump is trying to get Russia into the G8. Trump has meetings with Putin of which we have no transcript, Trump confiscates the notes of the interpreter and doesn't let our intelligence community see it. So we have no idea what he discussed. And how many ex-intel leaders, defense secretaries and the like have accused him of impropriety?

There is no other American President of whom we can say things like this. His behavior is suspect at best.
