The Russian invasion of Ukraine is a violation of international law and an assault on the sovereignty of a democratic nation. Tens of thousands of civilians have been killed, millions displaced, and critical infrastructure destroyed. We must stand firmly for peace, justice, and the protection of human life by pursuing policies rooted in diplomacy, accountability, and human rights. We must take action to achieve:

• An immediate ceasefire and the opening of robust peace negotiations with the aim of preserving Ukraine’s sovereignty and protecting civilian lives.
• Full humanitarian aid and refugee support, ensuring safe passage, medical supplies, and food security.
• Accountability for Russia and ensuring the Russian government aids in rebuilding destroyed communities in Ukraine.
