White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said on Saturday that Russia's latest peace proposal for Ukraine would lead to further domination of the country and is a "completely absurd vision."
He also told reporters China's absence from the Ukraine Peace Summit is probably a result of entreaties from Russia not to attend.
World leaders gathered at a Swiss mountain resort on Saturday to try to build support for Ukraine's peace proposals at a summit skipped by U.S. President Joe Biden, shunned by China and dismissed as a waste of time by Moscow.
