As the Russia-Ukraine war enters into Day 25 & there is no sign of ending it anytime soon, Switzerland has taken a stand to hold peace talks between the two countries.
Switzerland’s President Ignazio Cassis stated that he could organize a peace talk soon. “It’s a small country with a strong commitment to freedom. It is ready to play the role of a mediator behind the scenes or host negotiations,” said the Swiss president.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had appreciated Switzerland for these crucial steps but has also criticized Swizz businesses that are still functioning in Russia. Several companies including Microsoft, Apple, Meta have exited from Russia. Heavy sanction has also been imposed on Russia & its billionaires. Despite all of this, Russia isn’t budging from its stance against Ukraine.
Meanwhile, several talks have been taken place between Kyiv & Moscow but the outcome was not fruitful. Russia demands demilitarization of Ukraine & Kyiv is demanding security guarantees.
