Statement by Nova Ukraine on Ongoing Negotiations Between President Trump, President Zelenskyy, European Leaders, and President Putin

Donate

Nova Ukraine welcomes the increasing diplomatic efforts aimed at securing a just and lasting peace
for Ukraine. We recognize the importance of negotiations at the highest level, including the recent exchanges between President Trump, President Zelenskyy, European leaders, and President Putin. These contacts demonstrate that, more than three years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Ukraine is standing strong, and the international community understands that a durable peace requires fair and sustainable terms. Remarkably, even President Putin now acknowledges the need for security guarantees for Ukraine.

All sides have moved somewhat closer to a framework for peace, but fundamental disagreements remain. For Ukraine and partners, the principles are clear: respect for Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders, accountability for acts of aggression, ironclad security commitments, and the immediate return of all Ukrainian children abducted by Russia. We note positively First Lady Melania Trump’s advocacy on this crucial humanitarian issue, which gives hope to Ukrainian families still waiting for their children’s return and to the entire country.

On the ground, the reality is undeniable. Both countries suffered heavy, irreversible losses. But Russia’s war effort is stalling. Its economy has suffered irreparable harm and is crumbling under financial and economic sanctions, international isolation, and Ukraine’s kinetic sanctions. Once a leading agricultural power, Russia is now a net importer of food as its grain harvest falters. On the battlefield, Russian forces are sustaining massive casualties while achieving only marginal territorial gains. Ukraine’s defenders, by contrast, remain resolute and determined, they are counterattacking in multiple directions.

Ukraine continues to rely on strong Western support while rapidly increasing domestic defense production. With every passing day, Ukrainians draw strength from centuries-old culture, the unity of its people, and the courage of its armed forces.

“Ukraine’s cause is one of freedom, sovereignty, and survival — and the world knows it,” said Nick Bilogorskiy, Chairman of the Board of Nova Ukraine. “We support Ukraine’s unwavering commitment to peace founded on real security guarantees, the return of our abducted children, and the principles of international law. Ukraine will persevere, and Ukraine will prevail.”

An upcoming meeting between Presidents Zelenskyy and Trump will provide another opportunity to continue high-level talks. It is essential that negotiations continue until a just peace is secured.

Planning, Not Reacting: Ukraine’s Rescuers and Nova Ukraine Prepare for Winter Side by Side

On the tenth floor of an apartment building on Kyiv's left bank last January, Svitlana could not bathe her three-year-old daughter, Arina, or cook her a hot meal. After strikes on the energy system, they had gone more than three days without heat or electricity, in temperatures as low as -18°C. So she wrapped Arina in layer after layer and took her down ten floors of a dark stairwell to a heated tent that Ukraine's State Emergency Service had set up outside. There they could warm up, eat something hot, charge a phone and talk with a psychologist. Millions of Ukrainian families lived some version of that winter. When the power goes out, heat and water often go with it, elevators stop, and anyone who depends on electricity for medical treatment is suddenly at risk. UNICEF, which documented families like Svitlana's, observed that darkness and freezing temperatures intensify fear and stress for children. For the rescuers of the State Emergency Service, known in Ukraine as DSNS, a winter like that changes the job. They still fight fires and search damaged buildings after attacks. But when power, heat, and water fail, they also put up warming tents, install generators, and help residents get through the outages. Last winter left them, and everyone working alongside them, with a plain lesson: the time to prepare for an emergency is before it happens. Ukraine Is Preparing Earlier This Winter

Scout Camps Help Develop the Leaders of Tomorrow

Nova Ukraine helps Ukraine's next generation build confidence and leadership skills through scholarships to Plast Ukraine and Motley Raccoons summer camps. The future of Ukraine will someday be in the hands of its children, who will soon be the leaders tasked with rebuilding their country. Nova Ukraine supports the development of these young members of society in multiple ways, including through several education initiatives such as this year’s Engineering Week, which reached more than 195,000 students in grades K-12. Just as important as developing their minds, however, is nurturing their spirits and ensuring that they enter adulthood with confidence, hope, and a deep appreciation for their homeland. That is where Nova Ukraine’s partnership with the outdoor leadership camps is playing a key role. This past summer, Nova Ukraine provided full-ride scholarships for 180 children to attend Plast Ukraine summer camps, where children ages 2-18 participated in outdoor adventures. They learned practical skills such as first aid, cooking over campfires, and navigating wilderness trails, and many gained experience leading their own squads.
