At a media briefing for visiting Indian journalists in Kyiv on Friday, Zelenskyy said he told Prime Minister Modi that the peace summit could be hosted in India,
Indian Express reported.
“As for the peace summit, I truly believe that the second peace summit has to take place. It would be good if it could be held in one of the Global South countries,” he said. “We are very open to it. There are countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Türkiye and Switzerland. We are currently talking to those countries on hosting the peace summit.”
Modi on Friday conveyed to Zelenskyy that both Ukraine and Russia should sit together without wasting time to end the ongoing war and that India was ready to play an “active role” to restore peace in the region.
Zelenskyy said India supports Ukraine’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity and it is “critical because everyone in the world must equally respect the UN Charter”.
