Zelenskyy: For first time in history there is chance to end aggression on terms of nation attacked

The Ukrainian Peace Formula offers solutions and steps that will cease all forms of aggression, so for the first time in modern history there is a chance to put an end to them on the terms of the nation that was attacked, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said, speaking at a session of the UN General Assembly on Tuesday.

As the president noted in his speech, "the world act united – to defeat the aggressor and focus all our capabilities and energy on addressing these challenges."

"As nukes are restrained, likewise the aggressor must be restrained and all its tools and methods of war. Each war now can become final, but it takes our unity to make sure that aggression will not break in again. And it is not a dialog between the so-called 'great powers' somewhere behind the closed doors that can guarantee us all the new no-wars-era, but open work of all nations for peace," he said.

In this regard, Zelenskyy said the Peace Formula he presented last year at the General Assembly "became the basis to update the existing security architecture – now we can bring back to life the UN Charter and guarantee the full power of the rules-based world order."

"Now we can bring back to life the UN Charter and guarantee the full power of the rules-based world order," the president said.

"The Peace Formula offer solutions and steps that will stop all forms of weaponization that Russia used against Ukraine and other countries and may be used by other aggressors. Look – for the first time in modern history, we have a real chance to end the aggression on the terms of the nation which was attacked. This is a real chance for every nation – to ensure that aggression against your state, if it happens, God forbid, will end not because your land will be divided and you will be forced to submit to military or political pressure, but because your territory and sovereignty will be fully restored," Zelenskyy said.

The President of Ukraine also recalled the preparations for the Global Peace Summit based on the Ukrainian Peace Formula, inviting the leaders and heads of international organizations present to join in participation.

"While Russia is pushing the world to the final war, Ukraine is doing everything to ensure that after Russian aggression no one in the world will dare to attack any nation. Weaponization must be restrained. War crimes must be punished. Deported people must come back home. And the occupier must return to their own land. We must be united to make it. And we will do it," Zelenskyy said.
