Rainer Munz, a journalist for the German N-TV channel in Moscow, says Russia has managed to persuade many countries to refrain from participating in the “peace summit” on Ukraine held in Switzerland. Quoted RIA News.
“Russia is trying to persuade as many states as possible to give up participating in this conference,” the reporter said, noting that the Russian Federation seems to be successful in this area.
He recalled that in 2022, 141 states voted for a resolution demanding that the Russian Federation stop fighting in Ukraine, and in 2024, more than 100 countries will participate in the Swiss summit.
According to Muntz, not much should be expected from the conference because it will not be possible to reach a meaningful agreement without Russia.
On June 4, the Swiss People’s Party (SVP) called on Bern to invite Russia to the relevant conference. The party argued that otherwise the event would look like a conference for opponents of the Russian Federation. The position of the party as a whole in the Kremlin acceptanceHe replies that modern Switzerland pursues a policy that is far from neutral.
