"I don't have any announcements on that today," Sullivan said in response to a question about whether the US president would attend next month's Peace Summit in Switzerland, as he would be the only G7 leader not to accept the invitation.

"What I will say is that I have been personally involved in the preparations for this summit, as have others in our government, and, you know, we have been a key player in helping to advance a vision of peace that includes Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity and the principles of the UN Charter. [But I can't make any statements today about the president's trip," Sullivan said.
