Pope Francis received the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak in the Vatican. According to Yermak, the meeting took place during his working visit to Italy.

"This was an important conversation. I informed His Holiness about the philosophy of President Zelensky's "Formula of Peace", told [him] why the Formula is the only way to a just peace," Yermak wrote on Twitter.

The parties also discussed preparations for the Global Peace Summit, which will be held in Switzerland.

“Special attention was paid to the issue of the return of Ukrainian children who were forcibly deported from our country,” Yermak added.

During his visit to the Vatican, Yermak also met with the Secretary of State of the Holy See, Cardinal Pietro Parolin.

“[We] discussed the cardinal’s participation in the Global Peace Summit and the role of the Holy See in implementing the humanitarian points of the Peace Formula,” Yermak wrote on Twitter.
