Target: European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, President Emmanuel Macron, Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, and US President Donald Trump
Goal: Ensure that any negotiations regarding Ukraine's future prioritize human rights, Ukrainian sovereignty, and the security of Europe, with full transparency and public accountability.
On Monday, European and NATO leaders will stand with President Zelensky in Washington to discuss the future of Ukraine and the ongoing war. Recent statements from European officials highlight the need for a just and lasting peace that protects Ukraine's sovereignty and the security of all Europeans.
However, there is growing concern that negotiations may occur behind closed doors, potentially sidelining the voices of those most affected by the conflict. We call on all leaders present to commit to a transparent, inclusive process that centers the rights and needs of the Ukrainian people and ensures that any agreement upholds international law and human rights standards.
We urge European and US leaders to resist any pressure to accept concessions that undermine Ukraine's territorial integrity or the democratic will of its people. Instead, prioritize continued support for Ukraine, meaningful security guarantees, and robust enforcement of sanctions against aggression.
