Kiev anticipates Russian involvement in the upcoming Ukraine summit.
During the discussion, Jermak suggested that a "collaborative strategy" should be devised, which is backed by all these accountable nations. He mentioned over "a hundred countries" with representatives from each continent. "We're seeking the opportunity to invite a Russian delegate to the upcoming summit and present this collaborative strategy jointly," he added.
The peace conference is set to take place in Switzerland at the high-end Bügenstock resort following a gathering of G7 leaders' heads of state and government at the conclusion of this week in Southern Italy. Ukraine invited Zelenskyy, who will be traveling to Switzerland on Saturday.
The meeting was arranged in response to Ukraine's appeal. Kiev aims to garner widespread international support for its prerequisites to conclude the conflict with Russia. Russia mentioned prior to the event that they had no interest in joining and were thus not invited.
