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.

Nova Ukraine Provides New Tools and Training for Rescue Workers Across Ukraine

From January to June 2026, Nova Ukraine provided new tools and training for the rescue workers who save lives in the face of Russia’s ongoing aggression in Ukraine. In partnership with Ukrainian Firefighters, a charity providing funding, training, and expertise to Ukraine first responders, Nova Ukraine provided rescue teams with a new course in all-terrain driving, preparing them to reach and help victims of Russian attacks with maximum success. Nova Ukraine also donated 400 state-of-the-art firehoses to fire departments across the country, equipping teams to address the destruction caused by Russian attacks and develop effective rescue strategies that will serve the people of Ukraine for years to come. All-Terrain Training for Rapid Response Teams Rescuers from the State Emergency Service came together for hands-on training in the all-terrain and hazardous driving skills necessary to safely protect, rescue, and care for victims of Russian aggression in Ukraine. Attendees included teams from the Main Mobile Rescue Center of Rapid Response, as well as Mobile Rescue Centers in Sumy, Odesa, and Donetsk-Luhansk.

A Softer Ride

How our Children’s Cars program is making train travel more comfortable for Ukraine’s youngest passengers. Picture a train car late at night: windows blacked out, lights off, engines hushed, amid relentless shelling in the distance. In the dark, a child grips a parent's hand, trying to make sense of a trip no kid should have to take. It's meant to be a journey toward safety. But for Ukraine's littlest riders, it doesn’t always feel that way. The truth is, it's only gotten harder to feel safe. According to US News & World Report, attacks on Ukraine's railway climbed sharply in 2025, more than doubling to two or three strikes a week (and by some official counts, closer to ten), as Russia's drones have grown more precise and harder to evade. Yet with skies closed to passenger flights since 2022, trains remain a lifeline for families. Whether evacuating, reuniting with a dad on leave, or just taking a family trip, every journey carries a little more uncertainty than it used to.Now Nova Ukraine is making those train rides less stressful for kids and their parents.

How We’re Helping Communities Get First Aid Training This Fall September means something different depending on where you live. In the US, it’s all about back-to-school shopping and back-to-work energy, a shared reset after summer. But in Ukraine, where the same seasonal shift is underway, preparation goes far beyond backpacks and planners. As colder weather sets in (winter temps as low as Chicago’s), families are bracing for more shelling of civilian areas, attacks that cause power outages, food shortages, and devastating civilian casualties. Four years into this war, those casualties are still climbing. According to the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine, the first half of 2026 alone brought 1,396 civilian deaths and 7,978 injuries—a 37% increase over the same period last year. Homes, playgrounds, and businesses have all been hit, often before medical teams can reach the scene. In those first critical minutes, it’s whoever’s already there—a kid, neighbor, coworker, or parent—who can make the difference. In these moments, first aid knowledge saves lives. We’re helping to make sure everyone has the first aid skills they need.
