Target: President Donald Trump and the U.S. Administration
Goal: We call on President Trump and the U.S. administration to demand an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine, reject any settlements that compromise Ukrainian sovereignty, and support diplomatic solutions that center the needs and safety of Ukrainian people.
The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has resulted in immense human suffering, displacement, and loss of life. Despite international pressure, the recent summit between the U.S. and Russia failed to produce a ceasefire, with both leaders instead discussing long-term settlements that risk legitimizing aggression and undermining Ukraine's right to self-determination.
As President Zelenskyy meets with President Trump, it is crucial that the U.S. stands firmly for peace, human rights, and respect for international law. Any agreement that ignores the voices and needs of Ukrainians, or that prioritizes geopolitical interests over justice, will only perpetuate violence and instability.
We urge the U.S. administration to take immediate action to protect Ukrainian civilians, support a genuine ceasefire, and ensure that any peace process is inclusive, transparent, and respects Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
