Target: President of the United States, US Congress, and US State Department
Goal: Urge US leadership to respect Ukraine's autonomy, support its right to self-determination, and reject any deal that forces Ukraine to abandon its NATO aspirations under external pressure.
President Trump's recent comments, made after his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, call on Ukraine to abandon its pursuit of NATO membership as a condition for peace. This stance aligns with longstanding demands from Moscow and undermines Ukraine's right to choose its own security path. Forcing Ukraine to make concessions under duress not only jeopardizes its sovereignty but also sets a dangerous precedent for international relations.
We call on US leaders to support Ukraine's right to self-determination, stand against coercive diplomacy, and reaffirm commitments to democratic values and the security of all nations. The US must not pressure Ukraine into accepting unjust conditions for peace, nor should it echo demands that serve the interests of authoritarian regimes over those of democratic allies.
