White House's Sullivan says Russia's latest peace proposal is an 'absurd vision'

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.
