Ukraine ‘disappointed’ at Swiss support for China-Brazil peace plan

Ukraine ‘disappointed’ at Swiss support for China-Brazil peace plan

Ukraine expressed “disappointment” on Monday at Switzerland’s support for a peace plan put forward by China and Brazil aimed at ending more than two and a half years of war with Russia.

“We find the logic behind this decision difficult to comprehend,” a Foreign Ministry statement said, noting that Ukraine had organised a global peace summit in Switzerland in June at which its demands were set out.

All plans regarding the restoration of peace for Ukraine had to be based on the principles of “nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine” and on the UN Charter, including respect for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity within its internationally recognised borders, the statement said.

Any initiatives failing to guarantee the full restoration of Ukraine’s territorial integrity were unacceptable, it said, adding that initiatives of this kind created an illusion of dialogue while Russia continued its criminal actions.
