According to him, the Russians are trying to keep member states and the UN General Secretariat from joining the Peace Formula.

"Russia is making a lot of efforts to undermine this event. We are talking about both open and covert pressure on the Secretary General and other UN officials to prevent their presence at the summit in Switzerland," Kyslytsia said.

As reported by OBOZ.UA, US President Joe Biden will not attend the Peace Summit to be held in Switzerland on June 15-16. Washington will be represented at the event by Vice President Kamala Harris and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan.
