At the recent Peace Summit, held solemnly in Switzerland, 12 countries refused to sign a joint communiqué, which became a significant event in the international political arena.
Following the two-day Peace Summit in Switzerland, 80 countries out of 92 participants in the international event signed a joint communiqué. Thus, only 12 of them refused to issue a joint statement following the Peace Summit.
Several countries refused to sign the joint statement of the Peace Summit. The Peace Summit considered 3 of the 10 points of the peace formula for ending the war in Ukraine.
The first concerns nuclear safety and the return of the Zaporizhzhia NPP to Ukrainian control and its operation under IAEA supervision.
The second point was global food security, in particular safe shipping in the Black and Azov Seas with access to Ukrainian ports.
The third point of the Peace Summit concerned the exchange of prisoners on an “all for all” basis, as well as the return of Ukrainian children abducted by Russia.
On the screen at the Peace Summit, the organizers showed a list of countries that had signed a joint statement agreeing to the points of the international event. It turned out that 12 countries were not on the list.
Countries that did not sign the joint communiqué of the Peace Summit: Armenia, Bahrain, Colombia, Thailand, India, Indonesia, Libya, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and the UAE. Brazil also did not sign the document, but it was an observer at the event.
However, as Dmytro Kuleba pointed out, countries can join the Peace Summit declaration after the event ends, as well as those that did not participate in it but wish to join the initiative.
