What happened​

A two-day Ukraine peace summit in Switzerland ended Sunday with 78 countries signing a communique backing Ukraine's "territorial integrity" as the root of any deal to end Russia's war. Russia was not invited to the peace talks and China, Moscow's most important ally, did not attend. Several major countries, including India, South Africa, and Saudi Arabia, attended but did not sign the final document.

Who said what​

The joint communique said "respect for territorial integrity and sovereignty" must "serve as a basis for achieving a comprehensive, just and lasting peace in Ukraine." Russian President Vladimir Putin said Friday that he would agree to a cease-fire if Ukraine ceded four regions Russia partially occupies and claims to have annexed.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the conference showed "international support is not weakening" for Ukraine.

What next?​

Zelenskyy called the summit "first steps toward peace" and said at a "second peace summit we can fix the real end of this war." He added that "Russia can start negotiations tomorrow if they pull out of our territories."

this war is between Russia and Ukraine, if I'm China, i also wont interfere to attend whatever so call peace summit
Ukraine and Russia should settle themselves instead of dragging other countries into the so call peace negotiation.

Why the need for a peace summit? Don't we have a UN to handle such stuff? And if the UN is not able to settle matters, what hope is there for a mere peace summit?

Russia didnt just attack Ukraine suddenly, Russia already warned Ukraine for many years before they attacked.

Ukraine and Russia used to be best brother before 2014 until anti Russia came into power and kick all Russia influence out
Both Ukraine and Russia have a deep love hate relationship, they shouldnt drag the world into their conflict
the eastern part of Ukraine are manly Russia speaking Ukraine
the europeans and assmerrycunt just want to earn money by selling weapons to Ukraine
its given for free now, but these waepons are recorded and Ukraine will have to pay back later
