Ukraine Peace Summit: Addressing the Plight of 8,000 Prisoners of War

The ongoing conflict in Ukraine continues to cause immense suffering. Over 8,000 Ukrainians, including nearly 2,000 civilians, are currently held captive by Russian forces. Reports indicate that the Russian authorities are systematically targeting and arresting those who oppose their regime, often deporting them to remote regions of Russia. Heartbreaking footage shows children separated from their mothers and subjected to intense Russian propaganda. "This is a blatant violation of human rights," stated a representative from a human rights organization. In response to this crisis, Ukraine and Switzerland are organizing a peace summit scheduled for June 15-16 in Bürgenstock. Leaders from democratic countries will gather to discuss strategies for achieving a just and lasting peace. The summit aims to restore democratic world order and ensure the safe return of all those unjustly imprisoned, kidnapped, or deported. This event represents a crucial step towards resolving the conflict and bringing hope to countless suffering Ukrainians.
