We discussed the importance of encouraging the countries of the Global South to participate in the Summit and coordinated positions on this issue
According to him, the parties also reviewed in detail the situation at the front, particularly in the Kharkiv sector.
"We paid special attention to Ukraine's defense needs, in particular, additional air defense equipment, artillery, long-range vehicles and ammunition.

Addendum
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reportedthat the main issues to be discussed during the Peace Summit in Switzerland include the possibility of an "all-for-all" exchange, the return of abducted children and deported Ukrainians to Ukraine, and nuclear safety.
On June 15-16, the Swiss government intends to hold a high-level conference to seek ways to achieve peace in Ukraine. President Zelenskyy suggests that Russia may disrupt the Peace Summit. For his part, the head of the Presidential Administration, Andriy Yermak, said that Russia will not participate in the Global Peace Summit, and this is Ukraine's principled position.
The countries participating in the Peace Summit to be held on June 15-16 in Switzerland will develop a common negotiating position and submit it to Russia.
