Zelensky speaks for holding peace summit in July

He said this during a speech at the working session of the G7 summit "Towards a Peaceful, Stable and Prosperous World" with the participation of the G7 countries, Ukraine, and partners, Ukrinform reports with reference to the president’s press service.

"In a short time, already in July, the full-scale war will enter 500 days. And that is a symbolic period of time, a good month to convene the Summit of the Peace Formula, the summit of the global majority. The summit of all those who uphold honesty and are determined to bring this war to an end. I invite you to join in the common efforts!" Zelensky said.

According to him, "even if we are separated by distance, we are not decoupled by common understanding."

"You would defend yourselves if your home was broken-into, if the enemy came at your gate and deports your children, – you would not surrender to the colonizers, you would unite the whole world, you would fight – as we are fighting," Zelensky said, addressing the audience.

He recalled that Ukraine offered the world its peace formula.

"We have developed the Peace Formula in a way that ensures each of its points is backed by UN resolutions. And in a way that everyone in the world can choose the track they can contribute to. By the way I wanted to tell you that all these points are based on these resolutions and all your countries in different years supported and voted for these resolutions. I think this is really important," President emphasized.

As reported, the 48th summit of the Group of Seven leaders is underway in Japan. Its participants are discussing ways to ensure the stability of the global economy, including the consequences of the coronavirus pandemic and Russian aggression against Ukraine.

In November 2022, in an address to the participants of the Group of Twenty summit, the president of Ukraine presented a 10-point Ukrainian peace formula.
