Conference on Ukraine in Switzerland will allow to put pressure on Russia – Zelenskyy

Holding a conference in Switzerland on the Ukrainian issue is actually necessary only to organise pressure on Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this.

 

The Ukrainian president said that the main goals of the conference in Switzerland were to gather as many countries as possible and to put pressure on Russia to fulfil the West’s conditions.

“First of all, the agenda of this meeting: political pressure on Russia and the involvement of a large number of countries, the world majority,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy told Reuters.

Kiev, he said, is going to discuss food and nuclear security, as well as a number of humanitarian issues, including the exchange of prisoners.

“Then there will be technical decisions, there will be a plan. And then this plan will be handed over and presented on different platforms to Russia,” the Ukrainian president added.

The event will be held in June. It is planned that it will discuss the so-called peace formula proposed by Kiev. The conference will result in a joint plan, which will then be presented to Moscow.

Earlier, the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council, Dmitriy Medvedev, proposed a Russian version of the “peace formula” for Ukraine. He said that after admitting defeat, Kiev would also have to recognise that the entire territory of the former Soviet republic is Russian land and accept the act of reunification with the Russian Federation.
