Crimean Platform summit to open with dinner at Prague Castle

The two-day international Crimean Platform summit, which seeks to restore the territorial integrity of Ukraine and to end the Russian occupation of the Crimean peninsula, begins on Monday with a dinner at Prague Castle that will be attended by Czech President Petr Pavel. Legislators from four dozen countries have confirmed their attendance, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, also the founder of the platform, due to speak via a live video call on Tuesday.

The Crimean Platform summit was initiated by President Zelensky in the summer of 2021. The first edition took place last year in Zagreb, Croatia.
