SINGAPORE: Diplomacy does work, but it requires the will and backing of the global community, said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the Shangri-La Dialogue on Sunday (June 2).

He said this as he sought international support for an upcoming peace summit to be held in Switzerland on June 15 and 16. The summit is intended to show that there is a common understanding within the majority of nations on next steps towards peace in Ukraine, and to convey this to Russia.
