Ukrainian president proposes global peace summit
ISTANBUL (AA) – Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Sunday proposed holding a Global Peace Formula Summit this winter.
The summit will “unite all nations of the world around the cause of global peace,” he said in a video message.
“We offered a Peace Formula to the world. Absolutely fair. We offered it because there are no champions in war, there can be no draw. So I announce the initiative to hold a Global Peace Formula Summit this winter,” he said in the message released by his office.
Commenting on the tournament, Zelenskyy said the World Cup proved that “different countries and nationalities can decide who is the strongest in fair play.”
“On the green playing field, and not on the red battlefield. This is the dream of so many people, when players compete, making everybody enjoy peace,” he added.
He stressed that it remains imperative to ensure that “wars must fail, and peace is to become the champion.”
Earlier this week, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said Kyiv plans to hold a summit to implement on a universal level the peace proposal Zelenskyy outlined at last month’s G-20 summit in Indonesia.
Zelenskyy’s 10 conditions laid out at the G-20 summit outline a formula for peace, the last step of which is signing a peace accord, and also touch on nuclear safety, food and energy security, and Russia’s military withdrawal from Ukraine.
