World leaders have convened in Lucerne, Switzerland, for a pivotal summit focused on ending the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The gathering aims to leverage international diplomatic pressure against Russia to cease its military actions. However, the absence of significant allies of Moscow, particularly China, casts a shadow over the potential outcomes of the summit. Despite the notable absence of Russian and Chinese officials, the conference has attracted a diverse group of global leaders, including the presidents of Ecuador, Ivory Coast, Kenya, and Somalia, alongside many Western heads of state. The summit underscores the international community's search for a pathway to peace in Ukraine, though the lack of participation from key stakeholders raises questions about the feasibility of reaching a substantive resolution.
