President Vladimir Zelensky would like to hold a summit of Latin American countries and Ukraine to convey his position on the peace formula.

“Latin America is very important, I would very much like to do a conference, I would like to do a meeting, a summit of Latin American countries and Ukraine,” Zelensky said at a press conference Friday.

He said it’s hard for him to leave the country, but that’s the kind of meeting he would go to.

“I would be able to convey to them, their media, their society,” Zelensky stressed.

The president also said that Ukraine needs to make steps toward a meeting with the countries of the African continent.

“We worked very badly for many years, we did not pay attention – this is a big mistake. That’s why a special program was adopted to expand the ambassadorial presence in the region,” he added.

Zelensky reiterated that Ukraine would like to involve both India and China in the peace formula

“There is a point of fixing and the end of the war, we need security guarantees. When there is fulfillment of the points – then there is also respect for the people, for the Ukrainians,” Zelensky said.
