Target: President Donald Trump, U.S. Administration, European Leaders, and International Negotiators
Goal: Ensure that any peace deal between Russia and Ukraine protects Ukraine’s territorial integrity, secures the release of all prisoners and abducted civilians, and guarantees lasting security and self-determination for Ukraine.
As President Zelenskyy prepares to meet with President Trump following recent U.S.-Russia talks, the world is watching. We cannot allow 'peace' to become a euphemism for capitulation or injustice. Lasting peace must mean an end to violence, the return of all prisoners and abducted children, and the upholding of Ukraine's sovereignty and international borders.
We call on all negotiators to reject any settlement that legitimizes aggression or undermines Ukraine's right to self-determination. The voices of Ukrainians—those who have suffered displacement, loss, and violence—must be at the center of these talks. Human rights, freedom, and justice cannot be traded away for expediency.
We demand that the U.S. and international community uphold their commitments to Ukraine, maintain pressure on Russia until all aggression ceases, and ensure that any agreement includes robust security guarantees and accountability for war crimes.
