The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, called on representatives of the countries to draw up an «action plan» so that the end of the war could be recorded at the second meeting at the Peace Summit.

The President of Ukraine stated this while speaking at the first plenary session of the Global Peace Summit on June 15.

At the first summit, it is necessary to agree on how the states will cooperate to achieve peace, the head of state said.

«We must decide together what a just peace means for the world and how it should be achieved in a truly lasting way. The UN Charter is the basis for us,» the president emphasized.

He added that Russia was not represented at the first Peace Summit because it was not interested in ending the war. According to Zelenskyy, when the countries agree on an «action plan» to end the war, it will be shown to Russia.

«In such a way that at the second Peace Summit we could record the real end of the war. We are now starting this journey. Together, we must prove that the united world is a world of peace, a world that knows how to act,» said Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Peace Summit

Ukraine plans to hold the first inaugural Peace Summit in Switzerland. There will be discussed, in particular, the Peace Formula to end the war. Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned against other countries imposing «any formats of negotiations» with Russia on Ukraine.

Meanwhile, the head of the President's Office, Andrii Yermak, said that representatives of Russia may be invited to the second summit, which will not take place in Europe, where «they will be presented with this [peace] plan — in case the one who currently represents the aggressor country, will really want to end this war.»

We will remind you that earlier the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukraine already has confirmation of participation in the Peace Summit from more than 80 countries, and also called on US President Joseph Biden and President of the People's Republic of China Xi Jinping to join it.

China has refused to participate in the Global Peace Summit to be held in June in Switzerland. According to them, Beijing rejected the invitation because the conditions for participation were not met — the presence of both Ukraine and Russia at the conference.

Swiss President Viola Amgerd said that 90 countries and organizations, half of which are European, have confirmed their participation in the Peace Summit regarding Ukraine.
