Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that the peace conference regarding Ukraine to be held in Switzerland without Russia is a waste of time, calling it ‘completely absurd activity, an empty entertainment.’ Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov evaluated the Ukraine Peace Conference scheduled to take place in Switzerland on 15-16 June, without the invitation of Russia. Peskov mentioned that many countries have refused to participate in the conference, stating, ‘This is a completely absurd activity, an empty entertainment. Discussing Ukraine without Russia’s participation is senseless and clearly not result-oriented. Therefore, many countries do not want to waste time.’ Peskov also commented on the statements of Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan regarding Turkey’s potential inclusion in BRICS as an alternative to the European Union, saying, ‘We welcome the increasing interest in BRICS from important partners like Turkey and our neighbors. Certainly, this interest will be on the agenda of the BRICS summit, which we are actively preparing for during Russia’s presidency.’
