Goal: Ensure all high-level diplomatic meetings between U.S. and Russian officials are conducted transparently and with full accountability to the public.
At the recent Ukraine summit, President Trump and President Putin reportedly held a private conversation in a limousine before the official talks began. The summit itself took place in a room adorned with American and Russian flags, under the banner 'PURSUING PEACE.' However, the lack of transparency around these private discussions raises serious concerns about what agreements or understandings may be reached without public scrutiny or democratic oversight.
Secretive diplomacy risks undermining the interests of the American people, especially when it comes to critical issues like the sovereignty of Ukraine and international peace. We call on our elected officials and government agencies to ensure that all high-level diplomatic engagements are transparent, documented, and subject to public and congressional oversight.
