"Even if Russia receives an invitation to attend the 'peace conference' in Burgenstock, it will not accept it," Garmonin said as he recounted a recent remark by Russian President Vladimir Putin in which he rejected the idea of holding the event in Switzerland, calling it an attempt to impose conditions on Russia.
Garmonin said that Russia has obtained a draft communique of the 'peace conference' to be held in Burgenstock. It reiterates nine out of the 10 points from Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky’s 'peace formula.
The Swiss Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that the country has invited more than 160 delegations to the peace conference, including members of the Group of industrialized countries (G7) and the Group of leading developed and emerging economies (G20), and a number of international organizations.
Swiss officials said Russia is currently not on the list of invited participants.
