Ukrinform
The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe intends to adopt a resolution that will confirm the decision of the inaugural Summit on Peace in Ukraine, held in Switzerland on June 15-16.

Member of the Ukrainian delegation to the PACE, Yevhenia Kravchuk, revealed this in a comment to an Ukrinform correspondent.

"In a few days, an application will be filed for the resolution initiated by the Swiss delegation. It will relate precisely to the outcome of the Peace Summit and contain a call to all countries to actively work further on all the points adopted at the event," said the Ukrainian MP.

According to Kravchuk, the resolution is set to be adopted quite quickly, since Ukraine has no plans to delay the holding of the second Peace Summit.

"The main thing is to support Ukrainian plans and the format as such. It is about the fact that countries that believe in human rights, the UN Charter, and international law come together, work, and then convey their word to the aggressor. It will be voiced in different languages, all the languages ​​of the Council of Europe," explained Kravchuk.

Among the 46 states of the Council of Europe, only a few nations refrained from joining the Summit Communique, which was supported even by states with a special position, such as Hungary and Serbia. Among those who did not sign the document is Armenia. At the same time, among the signatories are the Council of Europe, European Commission, European Council, and European Parliament.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, the summer plenary session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe in Strasbourg will focus on legal and human rights issues related to Russia's aggression against Ukraine, debate the challenges to democracy in Georgia, and elect a new Council of Europe Secretary General for the next five years.
