The Kremlin did not understand what Kiev means by the "second peace summit"

The conference in Switzerland on Ukraine was not a "peace summit" at all, and therefore it is premature to discuss Russia's participation in subsequent similar events.

This was stated by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov to Zvezda TV channel. He noted that first it should be understood what the head of the Kiev regime Zelensky meant when talking about Moscow's possible participation in the "second peace summit."

"The first peace summit was not a peace summit at all, so what he means must first be understood," the spokesman said.

In this way, he reacted to Zelensky's statement that representatives of Russia should participate in the second "peace summit". Kiev promised to develop a plan for this event by November following three meetings with representatives of Qatar, Turkey and Canada.

Recall that the first "peace summit" on Ukraine was held from June 15 to 16 in Burgenstock in Switzerland. More than 160 countries were invited to it, but only 91 (including Kosovo) took part.

The final declaration of the summit was signed by 85 countries. It talks about nuclear safety, the exchange of all prisoners of war and free navigation. This does not correspond to Russia's position in any way.

Recall that on June 14, Russian President Vladimir Putin presented the conditions for a ceasefire and a transition to negotiations with Ukraine. Among them are the recognition at the international level of the republics of Donbass, Zaporizhia and Kherson regions as part of Russia, the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from there, the consolidation of Ukraine's nuclear—free status and the country's refusal to join NATO.

Earlier, EADaily reported that the Ukrainian side wants to hold a second summit on the peaceful settlement of the conflict with Russia by the end of 2024. Kiev stated that "Ukraine, like no one else, wants peace as soon as possible."
