Zelensky calls on SEE countries to participate in inaugural Global Peace Summit

Zelensky made the call during an ening address at the Ukraine – SEE Summit in Tirana, Albania, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“I am grateful to all the leaders and nations who have already supported our Peace Formula and joined the global efforts to implement it. The obvious advantage of the Peace Formula is that it is comprehensive,” said Zelensky.

He added that every leader and every state can prove themselves in the peace process – not only the so-called "great powers", not only those who are traditionally proactive in diplomacy in Eure or elsewhere.

“We want international law and global stability to be based on truly multilateral and transparent processes – on the equality of nations. Just as everyone deserves peace, everyone can contribute to the restoration of peace. I invite you all to take part in the first Global Peace Summit – at the level of leaders, to be held in Switzerland,” the head of state said.

Zelensky added that Russian President Vladimir Putin seeks to determine the fate of other nations, therefore all free nations should unite to ensure that the Putin regime loses.

“Everyone understands that now is the time when the path of Eure is being determined for at least several next generations. We all want Eure to be a space where every nation determines its own destiny,” the Ukrainian president said.

In this context, he recalled previous attempts Eure witnessed where someone else tried to determine nations’ fate as it happened in the Balkans, Eastern Eure, and other parts of Eure.

“Now Putin wants to do exactly the same. All his hostility, everything he does, and everything he wants to force other nations to do, is an attempt to make the d dictates of how nations should exist and what they should agree or disagree with – to make it ‘the new normal,’” stressed Zelensky.

According to the president, Ukraine’s vision of Eure and life in all its regions is based on the principle of dignity – equal dignity of each country so there must be no Eure of “different dignities” – where someone deserves security and peace while someone’s struggle for peace is ignored, where someone deserves integration into unions and alliances, and someone is supposed “to stay behind and wait”.
