For the fourth year now, Ukraine has withstood Russia’s full-scale war on land, at sea and in the air. We owe our independence to the courage of our defenders and resilience of our people. Ukrainians deserve a just peace based on the international law and respect for our territorial integrity and borders defined by our Constitution. Russia must not be rewarded for starting this war. Despite tireless efforts by the United States and Ukraine’s continued willingness to seek a fair peace, Russia continues its terror against civilians, ignores deadlines, and shows no genuine interest in ending the war. Ukraine remains open to meaningful dialogue and real solutions negotiated together with Ukraine, respecting the will of our people. We need a lasting peace that won’t be destroyed by Moscow’s next move. Ukraine stands ready to work with the United States and all our international partners to achieve together a just and lasting peace.
