Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday called on US President Joe Biden and Chinese leader Xi Jinping to join the next peace summit as his country struggles to avoid relentless attacks from Ukraine. Russia in its invasion that has lasted more than two years.
Moscow's forces have advanced on the battlefield in recent weeks and intensified air attacks on cities. Kiev hopes the June meeting in Switzerland will help increase international pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin.
In an English-language video recorded inside the charred remains of a printing press destroyed in a Russian airstrike on Thursday, Zelenskiy said the summit would “show who in the world really wants to end the war.”
“I appeal to the leaders of the world who are still away from the global efforts of the Global Peace Summit — to President Biden, the leader of the United States, and to President Xi, the leader of China,” he said. “Please show your leadership in advancing peace — true peace and not just a lull between attacks.”
Russia has said it sees no point in a conference to which Moscow is not currently invited.
