Target: US President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and all summit negotiators
Goal: Ensure that any peace process or agreement regarding Ukraine is transparent, includes direct Ukrainian representation, and upholds Ukraine's sovereignty and security.
The Alaska summit between President Trump and President Putin has been described as 'historic,' with both leaders discussing the future of Ukraine and the broader security situation in Europe. While both sides have spoken of the need for a 'just balance of power' and the importance of Ukraine's security, the Ukrainian people and government have repeatedly called for their voices to be central in any negotiations. President Zelenskyy made clear that 'everything concerning Ukraine must be discussed exclusively with Ukraine.'
Peace cannot be imposed from above or negotiated in secret. History shows that durable solutions arise when those most affected are given agency and respect. We call on all parties to ensure that Ukraine's sovereignty, democratic rights, and security are not bartered away in pursuit of expedient deals. The world is watching—stand with the people of Ukraine for a just and lasting peace.
