Promoting Global Peace: Zelensky's Call to Action at the Peace Summit

President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine asserts that he is actively preparing for the inaugural Peace Summit in Switzerland.

He emphasises the importance of the participation of as many states and stakeholders as possible, particularly those committed to the full implementation of the UN Charter and international law, in demonstrating leadership at the summit. Zelensky underscores that genuine peace and the restoration of tranquillity in international relations hinge upon the collective efforts of the global majority to establish peace and compel Russia to adhere to the fundamental principles of peaceful coexistence among nations.

"We are currently working very actively on preparing the inaugural summit, the Peace Summit in Switzerland. It is crucial that as many states and actors as possible, interested in the full implementation of the UN Charter and international law, demonstrate their leadership position at the summit. Today, I spoke with the presidents of Lithuania and Poland, Gitanas Nausėda and Andrzej Duda, and with the prime ministers of Estonia and Canada, Kaja Kallas and Justin Trudeau. I personally invited them to the summit. I thanked them for actively supporting our work for a just peace - because they supported the Peace Formula," wrote President Volodymyr Zelensky on Facebook.

He specifies that "such peace and the true restoration of tranquillity in international relations are possible only if the global majority joins in establishing peace and compels Russia to adhere to the basic rules of normal coexistence among nations."

"I am grateful to all the partners who help us implement this task. I am grateful to every leader who communicates with others to ensure their participation in the summit and expression of their opinions. Today's world is one of the majority, a world in which no one has or should have the privilege of imposing something on other nations, especially through violence. Everyone is equally important, and every nation deserves equal respect. This is the essence of our Peace Formula, which benefits every nation. The Peace Summit is an opportunity to demonstrate, not just in words but also in reality, who truly supports equality in the world," the Ukrainian leader further conveys.

It is worth mentioning that the First Peace Summit for Ukraine will take place on June 15-16 at Burgenstock, Switzerland. Volodymyr Zelensky, the leader from Kiev, hopes that the meeting "will serve as a platform to discuss how a just and lasting peace for Ukraine can be achieved," according to the principles of international law.
