President Zelensky Talks With Pope Francis About Ukraine’s Peace Formula

In a phone chat with Pope Francis on Thursday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he addressed Ukraine’s peace formula.

Volodymyr Zelensky tweeted, “We discussed our joint work to put Ukraine’s Peace Formula into action. Over 80 countries are already involved in this process at the level of their representatives. And there will be more of them”, through his official ‘X’ handle.

Zelensky expressed gratitude to Francis for his Christmas greetings, as well as his wishes for a just peace for all of us.

Ukraine’s peace formula will be considered next in Davos, Switzerland, according to Zelensky but no date has been set.

As part of his attempts to bring peace to Ukraine, Pope Francis dispatched a special envoy, Italian Cardinal Matteo Zuppi, to Kyiv, Moscow, Washington, and Beijing.

The Pope called for an end to many conflicts, including the one in Ukraine, in his Christmas Day speech. In November, he reiterated his long-standing demand for a halt to violence in Ukraine and the Middle East, saying that peace is possible and that “we must not resign ourselves”.

In October, Zelensky stated that he had invited Francis to Kyiv. In May, the Ukrainian president met privately with Pope Francis at the Vatican.
