President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the nation, speaking about a representative meeting of leaders' representatives regarding the Peace Formula and about continuing work on security guarantees for our country.

"I wish health to all dear Ukrainians,

Here are some conclusions from today.

Today in Switzerland, there is a new meeting of leaders' representatives regarding the Peace Formula. This is already the fourth such meeting, and it's extremely important that each one gathers more participants. Currently, over 80 countries and international organizations are represented. Not only our usual partners in Europe and North America but also countries from Latin America, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. A representative meeting. I am grateful to every leader and every country participating in this joint work and confirming with their participation that the world order based on rules must be restored — for everyone on earth, without exception.

The masters of Russia think they can impose some other, predatory world order by force and terror, lies, and cruelty — a world without rules or any security guarantees. It is precisely this certainty — the certainty of killers — that we are all now reducing together. With each meeting — for the sake of normal international law. Through the continuous expansion of our international work — into new regions, new countries. New agreements for greater security. Ukrainian initiatives are gradually becoming global initiatives. I am grateful to everyone who helps with this.

Today's meeting in Switzerland continues the work that took place during meetings in Malta, Saudi Arabia, and Denmark. I look forward to a detailed report from our team — the Ukraine team — regarding the discussions that have taken place.

There is also continuation today in the work on security guarantees for Ukraine — we started talks with Romania. This is already the ninth country with which such bilateral work is being carried out. All countries of the "Big Seven" plus the Netherlands, plus Romania. There will be more. We take as an example the agreement that we signed this week with the United Kingdom. Once again, I am grateful to the UK for its leadership and for the very strong content of the agreement.

Overall, the first two weeks of this year have already added strength and opportunities for Ukraine. There are new support packages for our soldiers. There are extremely important agreements on joint production of weapons and ammunition, especially a sensitive issue — drones. There will be more drones. We are preparing another good news story about PPOs. Remember also rockets and REB — radio-electronic warfare means — there will be more. And month by month, we continue to increase our Ukrainian production of artillery.

Ukraine has the potential to go through this difficult path of war. We have the potential to unite the world. We have the potential to win. The main thing is — to believe in our strength. To believe in Ukraine. I am grateful to everyone who is with Ukraine and in Ukraine. I am grateful to everyone who fights, works, volunteers, and helps so that Ukraine — lives.

Glory to Ukraine!"
