Goal: We urge the U.S. administration to commit to full transparency, uphold democratic values, and prioritize peace and justice in all negotiations with Russia.
The high-stakes summit between President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin has begun under a cloud of secrecy and shifting protocols. The absence of interpreters and last-minute changes to the meeting format raise critical questions about the integrity and transparency of these negotiations, especially as they pertain to the ongoing war in Ukraine.
We are deeply concerned that decisions affecting millions of lives could be made behind closed doors, without public oversight or input from those most impacted. The American people and the global community deserve to know what is being discussed and agreed upon in their name.
We call on the U.S. administration to ensure that all diplomatic engagements with Russia are conducted with the highest standards of transparency, prioritize the protection of human rights, and work toward a just and lasting peace in Ukraine.
