Zelensky aide, foreign ambassadors discuss Ukrainian Peace Formula
That's according to the official website of the head of state, Ukrinform reports.
"I think we all hold the same opinion here in matters of respect for international law and the UN Charter. So I want to once again express my great thanks for the fact that we are meeting in this format for the fourth time and will continue to do so. I hope that your active participation is evidence that you share our principles," Yermak said.
He said that proposals to the philosophy of President Volodymyr Zelensky's Peace Formula expressed by diplomats would help in its implementation.
Yermak said that in the process of implementing the Peace Formula, a structure for its coordination and implementation had been created from three levels, including ambassadors of countries, advisers on national security issues, and heads of state. Such a structure makes it possible to work effectively on the provisions of the Peace Formula and ways of its implementation.
"We believe that the Ukrainian peace plan should be taken as a basis. The logic is very simple: the war, unfortunately, is taking place on our territory. For us, the Ukrainians, and, I am sure, for everyone present here today, all our colleagues, partners and friends, the most important thing is to end this war. And it must be ended so that Ukraine can return all its territories and restore its territorial integrity, its sovereignty," he said.
Yermak noted that the Ukrainian peace plan is built exclusively on the principles of international law, the UN Charter and justice.
"The opinion of everyone who respects our sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence is important to us. We are ready to hear everyone. We are ready to talk to everyone. I hope that, with your help, we will be able to develop clear and concise wording that will allow for the possibility of different interpretations of the points of the Formula. No matter what the correction is, the fundamental principle of the Formula – full compliance with the norms of international law – will remain inviolable," Yermak added.
