The war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas has also diverted the world's attention from Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy trumpeted the summit's attendance as a success and predicted "history being made." "Today is the day when the world begins to bring a just peace closer," he told leaders assembled around a giant rectangular table. "He's calling for surrender," Harris said, adding: "Let nothing about the end of this war be decided without Ukraine."
