Yermak emphasized that any proposals regarding changes to the peace formula must adhere to international law and not jeopardize Ukraine's borders and sovereignty.
“As a victim of aggression, Ukraine cannot accept conditions that threaten its right to self-determination,” Yermak noted.
Additionally, Yermak addressed the issue of ecological damage inflicted on Ukraine as a result of Russian aggression, highlighting the importance of holding Russia accountable for these actions. In light of the recent conference on economic security in Helsinki, he stressed:
“Before we achieve peace, we must win and create conditions for lasting peace.”
Following the success of the first peace summit in Switzerland, Ukraine is ready for further negotiations and the development of new frameworks for future peace. Yermak indicated that Ukraine aims to “create peace not only for itself but for the entire global community.” He also stated that the active participation of all states in formulating the framework for a peace agreement is essential for achieving a just and lasting peace.
A series of thematic conferences on the points of the peace formula proposed by President Volodymyr Zelensky is expected to conclude by the end of October. After that, Ukraine will present the international community and Russia with a concrete path towards establishing stable peace based on consensus and justice.
Let us remind you that the UN has voiced a new forecast for the end of the war in Ukraine.
