LUCERNE, Switzerland - World leaders gather in Switzerland on Saturday for a summit aimed at pressuring Russia to end its war in Ukraine , but the absence of powerful allies of Moscow such as China will blunt its potential impact.Dozens of allies of Ukraine will take part in the summit, but China is staying away after Russia was frozen out of proceedings on the grounds it had dismissed the event as a waste of time and had no interest in attending.
Switzerland, which took on the summit at the behest of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, wants to pave the way for a future peace process that includes Russia.But geopolitical splits over the deadliest European conflict since World War Two have dogged the event, and Zelenskyy has even accused Beijing of helping Moscow undermine the gathering, an accusation China's foreign ministry denied.
