The West itself canceled out any prospects for a conference on Ukraine in Switzerland

Swiss President Viola Amherd previously announced that the country would hold a conference on the so-called Ukrainian peace formula in June this year in Bürgenstock.

The West openly calls for a collective ultimatum to Russia; this negates any prospects for a conference on Ukraine in Switzerland. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at a press conference following a meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the CIS in Minsk.

“They are not going to invite us, they just openly stated that first they need to formalize a collective ultimatum to Russia. This simply destroys any chance of any success for this Swiss venture,” he said.

Earlier, Swiss President Viola Amherd announced that the country would hold a conference on the so-called Ukrainian peace formula in June this year in Bürgenstock. The Russian diplomatic mission confirmed that “the Swiss authorities did not send Russia an invitation to the conference in Bürgenstock.”

As the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov noted, negotiations on Ukraine without Russia are meaningless and are essentially a “process in vain.”
