UNITED NATIONS - UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres wants to meet with the leaders of Russia and Ukraine in Moscow and Kviv to press for peace.
He made the request by letter Tuesday to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russian President Vladimir Putin, asking to “discuss whatever urgent steps can be taken to stop the fighting.”
As of Wednesday, his spokesman Stephane Dujarric said the UN has gotten no response.
Guterres called Tuesday for a four-day “humanitarian pause” in hostilities from Thursday through Sunday, the Orthodox Easter holiday to allow for evacuating civilians and providing aid.
