Global Summit Seeks Peace in Ukraine Amid Russian Ultimatums

A peace summit in Switzerland, led by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and attended by leaders from nearly 100 nations, aims to end the Ukraine-Russia war. Key figures like US Vice President Kamala Harris and French President Emmanuel Macron are present, though notable absentees include Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping. The summit's agenda focuses on nuclear safety, humanitarian assistance, and global food security. Despite Zelenskyy's optimism and calls for joint efforts to achieve a just peace, expectations are low due to Russia's non-participation and ongoing demands. Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer emphasized the need for broader global involvement to influence Russia. India, represented by a senior diplomat, reiterated its stance on resolving the conflict through dialogue and diplomacy.
