A top Ukrainian official said on Monday that the country wants a United Nations-backed peace summit to end the war with Russia by February 2023 but only if Moscow faces a war crimes tribunal in an international court first.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba told the Associated Press in an interview that Ukraine will do whatever it can to win the war next year as the conflict continues to rage on but that he hopes that both sides can reach a diplomatic deal.
