Target: President Donald Trump, US Congress, and the US Department of State
Goal: We call for full transparency and democratic oversight of all negotiations between the United States and Russia regarding the war in Ukraine.
The recent summit between President Trump and President Putin in Anchorage, Alaska, was conducted behind closed doors, with no details released to the public or the press about what agreements were reached. The lack of transparency in these high-stakes negotiations undermines democratic accountability and the right of the public to know how decisions are being made about war, peace, and international security.
Decisions regarding Ukraine's sovereignty, the safety of its people, and the future of international relations cannot be made without public scrutiny and input from elected representatives. We are deeply concerned that secretive negotiations may prioritize geopolitical interests over human rights, self-determination, and the voices of those most affected by the conflict.
We urge the US government to commit to openness, involve Congress and civil society in the peace process, and ensure that any agreements uphold international law and the rights of the Ukrainian people.
