Target: President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Former President Donald Trump, U.S. Congress, and International Peace Negotiators
Goal: We call on all leaders involved in the Ukraine peace negotiations to commit to transparency, prioritize human rights, and center the needs of civilians over political theater.
The recent focus on President Zelenskyy's attire ahead of his meeting with former President Trump highlights a troubling trend: the prioritization of image over substance in international diplomacy. As the world watches, real lives are at stake in Ukraine. The ongoing Russian invasion has caused immense suffering, displacement, and loss. Instead of debating wardrobe choices, we urge our leaders to focus on the urgent need for a just peace, the protection of human rights, and the inclusion of Ukrainian civil society in all negotiations.
We demand that all parties involved in these high-level talks commit to transparency, reject political grandstanding, and prioritize the needs and safety of people over optics. The world deserves a peace process that is accountable to those most affected by war, not one dictated by media spectacle or political posturing.
