Target: President Joe Biden, U.S. State Department, United Nations, European Union leadership, and international diplomatic bodies
Goal: Urge world leaders to respect Ukraine’s sovereignty and self-determination in all peace negotiations, and to reject any settlement that compromises Ukraine’s territorial integrity or is imposed without the consent of the Ukrainian people.
The recent Alaska summit between President Trump and President Putin, followed by calls between Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov and his Turkish and Hungarian counterparts, highlights the ongoing international efforts to address the war in Ukraine. However, statements suggesting that Ukraine should simply 'make a deal' with Russia ignore the fundamental right of Ukrainians to determine their own future.
Diplomatic solutions must center the voices of those most affected by war and occupation. We call on all parties to reject any peace process that is negotiated over the heads of Ukrainians or that legitimizes territorial aggression. The international community must uphold principles of sovereignty, human rights, and justice, ensuring that any agreement is built on these foundations.
