Strengthen Support for Ukraine: Demand Increased Aid and Sanctions Against Russian Aggression

Ukraine’s struggle against Russian aggression is not just a regional conflict—it is a fight for democracy, sovereignty, and human rights. Despite significant international support, including $1.5 billion from Australia, Ukraine continues to face relentless attacks and territorial violations. Recent diplomatic efforts have not produced a just or lasting peace, and Russia has made no meaningful commitments to end its war of aggression.

We commend Australia’s contributions so far, but more must be done. The Ukrainian people need increased military aid, including armoured vehicles and defensive equipment, to protect their nation and civilians. Furthermore, consistent and expanded sanctions are necessary to pressure Russia’s economy and impede its ability to wage war. Australia must also champion international security guarantees for Ukraine, ensuring its right to self-determination and territorial integrity.

We urge the Australian Government to act decisively, in solidarity with Ukraine and the global coalition supporting its freedom. Now is the time to demonstrate unwavering commitment to peace, justice, and the rule of law.
