President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA will this week meet with Ukrainian President VOLODYMYR ZELENSKY and Russian President VLADIMIR PUTIN as part of the African Peace Initiative focused on addressing the situation between Russia and Ukraine.
Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Minister STANELY KAKUBO says President HICHILEMA, who is expected to commence his trip today will meet the Ukrainian President in Kyiv on Friday and the Russian President in Saint Petersburg on Saturday.
Mr. KAKUBO says President HICHILEMA will be joining six other African Heads of State and Government from Comoros, Congo Brazzaville, Egypt, Senegal, South Africa, and Uganda to participate in the initiative.
He says the African Peace Initiative draws upon Africa’s successful track record of resolving conflicts through dialogue and peace-building, with the African leaders aiming to encourage open dialogue and negotiations between Russia and Ukraine.
Mr. KAKUBO says Zambia remains deeply committed to global peace as a catalyst for socio-economic development in Africa and the world at large hence joining the initiative.
He says the Russia – Ukraine conflict has had negative consequences such as disruptions to Africa’s commodity supply chains.
Mr. KAKUBO says by embracing the initiative, Zambia seeks to create an environment conducive to economic and social prosperity.
Mr. KAKUBO has told ZNBC News in a statement that President HICHILEMA is expected to return to Lusaka immediately after this Mission.
