Target: President Donald Trump, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, European Heads of State (France, Britain, Germany, Italy, Finland)
Goal: Urge President Trump, President Zelenskyy, and European leaders to commit to strong, enforceable security guarantees for Ukraine that uphold international law and protect Ukrainian democracy.
The ongoing war in Ukraine has resulted in immense suffering, displacement, and the undermining of international norms. As President Zelenskyy and European leaders convene in Washington, there is a historic opportunity to secure a just peace through robust security guarantees. Any deal must not be negotiated over the heads of Ukrainians, nor can it reward aggression or set dangerous precedents.
We call on all parties to center Ukraine's sovereignty, democracy, and the will of its people. Security guarantees must be clear, binding, and backed by international mechanisms to deter future aggression. The world cannot afford another failed peace process or a deal that leaves Ukraine vulnerable. Now is the time for bold action and solidarity with those fighting for their freedom and self-determination.
