Kyrylo Budanov's Address at the World Economic Forum

According to Novyny.live: Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Kyrylo Budanov, the Head of Ukraine's Office of the President, outlined his perspective on achieving peace for Ukraine. He stressed that progress largely depends on the actions of the Russian Federation. While emphasizing the critical need to continue working toward peace, Budanov cautioned that

“peace cannot be achieved tomorrow.”

The forum's agenda includes several critical issues concerning Ukraine. Key topics slated for discussion are:

• The situation on the front lines
• Drone production
• Negotiation processes
• Humanitarian concerns
• The country's energy situation

This focus is timely, as Ukraine is currently experiencing widespread electricity blackouts due to ongoing attacks on its infrastructure.

Addressing Pressing Challenges

Further discussions are planned on support for internally displaced persons in 2026 and the situation surrounding the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. These subjects are vital for ensuring Ukraine's future stability and security. The forum provides a crucial platform for Ukraine to engage with global leaders and secure international backing during this protracted conflict.

These issues will be explored in depth on the live broadcast of the program Morning.LIVE, beginning at 08:00. The guest panel will feature experts including Danylo Pologukhov, Dmytro Snihiryov, Viktor Shlinchak, Pavlo Frolov, Stanislav Ignatiev, Bohdan Popov, Serhiy Nahornyak, and Mykhailo Lynetskyi. They will share their analysis on the current state of affairs and potential pathways to peace.

Ukraine's participation in the World Economic Forum underscores the importance of sustained international support during the war and the necessity of dialogue with partners to resolve urgent national challenges. The focus on humanitarian and energy security issues demonstrates that, despite immense difficulties, Ukraine remains committed to seeking stability and recovery.
