Zhovkva specified that these countries are France, Czechia, Türkiye, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, the US, Norway, Poland, Canada, Qatar, Chile, Finland, the Netherlands, Germany, and the UK.
"After that, we will take part in a second summit, which must lay the foundations of a long-lasting and just peace", Zhovkva noted.
He confirmed that the communiqué agreed at the summit remains open, and any country or international organisation that respects the UN Statute and international law can sign up to it.
"The number of states signing up to the text of the communiqué will definitely be increasing", Zhovkva believes.
Background:
